Marie Curie: Mother of Modern Physics


Marie Curie: Mother of Modern Physics by Janice Borzendowski

A biography of Marie Curie, whose discovery of radium changed science and the world, and describes her childhood, education, and the hardships she faced in her professional life.



My Thoughts:  I found this to be a facinating story!  I knew that Marie Curie was a famous scientist, but I had no idea of the hardships she faced or the importance of her contributions!  This was a fabulous true story!
