(4) YA Giants of Science series. Beginning with an embellished account of a determining moment in the subject's professional life, the books in this series then include short segments expounding on events before and after. Photos and archival illustrations, as well as sidebar quotations and a time line, extend each text. Not all the subjects are scientists, though, and Gutenberg is really a history of printing. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Giants of Science titles: Guglielmo Marconi, Louis Pasteur, Johann Gutenberg, James Watt.]
Reviewer: Frieda F. Bostian
