Since ancient times, science has brought order to a chaotic world and advanced the boundaries of knowledge. Eratosthenes calculated the size of Earth in 320BCE, but it took over 1,800 years before Copernicus placed the Sun at the centre of the Universe. This book traces the pivotal moments in science that have produced quantum leaps in every discipline from biology to cosmology. The greatest scientists are profiled, along with the laws of nature they defined, and the struggles they endured to convince an often sceptical scientific community. Book jacket.
