Description
Because the field of Science, Technology & Society (STS) is inter-disciplinary, this A-to-Z collection presents scientists from backgrounds as diverse as early aviation technology and modern computer science. There are compelling biographies of biophysicists, chemists, physicians, electrical engineers, psychologists, pathologists, mathematicians, and more. The common element shared by these noted individuals is the way in which their social setting shaped and contributed to their scientific work.
