A to Z of Biologists, Updated Edition uses the device of biography to put a human face on science-a method that adds immediacy for the high school student who might have an interest in pursuing a career in biology. This comprehensive survey features more than 150 entries and 50 black-and-white photographs. Each profile focuses on a biologist's research and contributions to the field and their effect on scientists whose work followed. Their lives and personalities are also discussed through incidents, quotations, and photographs. The profiles are culturally inclusive and span a range of biologists from ancient times to the present day. The entries on women and minority biologists especially articulate the obstacles that these biologists overcame in the process of reaching their goals. This title is an ideal resource for students and general readers interested in the history of biology or the personal and professional lives of significant biologists. People covered include: * Rachel Louise Carson (1907–1964) * Paul Ehrlich (1854–1915) * Dian Fossey (1932–1985) * Galen (c. 130–c. 201) * Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859) * Shibasaburo Kitasato (1852–1931) * Severo Ochoa (1905–1993) * Linus Carl Pauling (1901–1994) * Rosalyn Sussman Yalow (1921–2011) * Lap-Chee Tsui (1950–present) * Pamela Silver (1952–present)
