Unlocking the Secrets of Science series.
Designed to explain the contributions of their subjects to science and technology, the volumes in this series do so unevenly, from the straightforward narrative about Wozniak to the rather amorphous treatment of Weinberg's achievements. Illustrated with black-and-white photos, the books begin with an anecdote and conclude with an individual chronology and a timeline of the subject's field of study. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these titles: Robert A. Weinberg and the Search for the Cause of Cancer, Tim Berners-Lee and the Development of the World Wide Web, Stephen Wozniak and the Story of Apple Computer, Oswald Avery and the Story of DNA.]
