Description

The Nobel Prize is widely regarded as the most prestigious award one can receive. Established by Alfred Nobel in his will, the first prizes were awarded in 1901 to honor those with extraordinary achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and peace. A prize in economics was added in 1968. Nearly 800 individuals and organizations have been recognized by the award since its inception. This book contains photographs and background information on more than 200 of the most famous and most interesting laureates as well as a complete list of all prize winners (through 2007). “An indispensable book for anyone interested in world affairs, science and the most important prize in the world.”
