Fleming's penicillin discovery resulted from lucky coincidence coupled with hard work, Goddard's liquid rocket engine was a lifelong dream, Teller's insistence on defensive armaments is still debated, and McClintock's jumping genes are lively topics of research. A time line and black-and-white photos supplement the text. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Unlocking the Secrets of Science titles: Alexander Fleming, Edward Teller and the Development of the Hydrogen Bomb, Robert Goddard and the Liquid Rocket Engine, Barbara McClintock.]

(4) YA 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.]
