2.0 out of 5 stars Only on physicists' life and almost none on their achievement!!!, May 8, 2007

This review is from: Remarkable Physicists: From Galileo to Yukawa (Paperback)
Of course I understand that Ioan James's intention of writing this book is to give us a more " human " aspect about the physicists and not a work on the theory of physics. I fully agree. However he should at least state
at least very briefly about the achievement of the great physicist!! Take for an example, in describing Ampere, he does not even mention about the Ampere's law!!! I think at least in describing various physicists, he should at least state briefly about what contribution of those hysicists. Just on sentence about the equation of the laws would make this book far more interesting! Otherwise, just mention the date of birth, when the phyicist went to univerisity, when he married, when he died etc. I would ask, then what make this physicists worthy of a brief biography and separae them from just an ordinary people?????????????????
