The seventy-seven extraordinary portraits included in \u003cem\u003eFaces of Science\u003c\/em\u003e make their subjects accessible to us and less formidable than they may have seemed in the past. Each image is paired with a short autobiographical essay explaining how the scientist became interested in his or her chosen field. The combination of word and image illuminates the individual character of each scientist, from Francis Crick and Richard Leakey to Miriam Rothschild and Mary Eubanks. It also reveals some of what they have in common: intellectual curiosity, a desire to help mankind, and an ability to work with others to accomplish their tasks. \u003cem\u003eFaces of Science\u003c\/em\u003e is both an inspiration and a confirmation of the human spirit.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"W.
