Science Series: Louis Pasteur

Paperback

-

The discoveries of Louis Pasteur (1822-1895), the famous chemist and biologist, have helped to shape the modern world. This book covers his entire career from his difficult days as a student to his triumph as a mature scientist, with the emphasis on his research and achievements rather than on his personal life.

Pasteur's first chemical research resulted in his founding a whole new discipline, stereochemistry, and from this early success he progressed to his great pioneering work in bacteriology, the science which studies bacteria and their relations to medicine, industry and agriculture.
