[Barbara Ab · Rating 4 out of 5]

First these two series of little books (about 64 pages) - Scientist who have changed the world and People who have helped the world – are incredible well done. They are small but they provide a complete account of each person life with an outstanding historical background and future developments of his discoveries.. They are also full of pictures with full explanations and outlined quotes.

Luckily this smart Italian man,who did not like school at all, had a smart supporting mother and English relatives who understood the importance of its discovery.
