Madame Curie
Marie Curie -- inventor with her husband Pierre of a magic element, radium, and winner of two Nobel Prizes -- rejected money, comfort and the thousand advantages that genuinely great men may obtain from immense fame. She suffered from the part the world wished her to play. The celebrated scientist did not know how to be famous. A touching and very well-written memoir of Marie Curie by her second daughter Eve. With black and white photographs.
First published February 1938 by William Heinemann, London and Toronto. This is the 19th reprint of October 1947. Translated by Vincent Sheean from French.
Condition: Good. Some foxing inside.
