Reviews
"""I’m a MD. PhD scientist that loves the history of ideas, how concepts evolve and become medical breakthroughs. This book is a great way to dive into the process that brings science to our daily life. When you talk about doing a PCR test for COVID. Do you know the history behind PCR? How many Nobel prices are behind this? How many people did work for this to happen? If you are a curious mind, please get this book. Clearly written and nicely illustrated. Ideas are presented for anyone that took science classes in high school while keeping content attractive for PhDs. I’m planning to organize a class around this book to teach how science is done. Great job."" - Victor Faundez, 5.0 out of 5 stars Great Read from High School to Graduate School"
