"The history of scientific progress is full of surprises. How many people realise, for example, that the term 'electricity' was coined in 1646? Or that Benjamin Franklin invented the lightning conductor? Even a seemingly recent invention such as television turns out to have been patented in 1884. This book covers science and scientists from the earliest recorded days right up to the new millennium, and will become an invaluable reference work as well as a delight to dip into."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
