Description

As children are taught about these incredible inventors and ground-breakers in school, Campfire's graphic retelling of these great scientific events really brings the story to life, showing how the scientists involved raced to beat each other and how the results would change our lives forever.

Reviews

"What shines through the text is the fact that Crick and Watson could not have achieved their discovery without the ground work of co-operating scientists such as Rosalind Franklin and with additional input from Linus Pauling and Maurice Wilkins. This results in a clear message that great scientific discoveries are built upon the work of a team and that the altruism in sharing steps along the way leads to effective results." The School Librarian(UK)
