Hodgkin: A Life by Georgina Ferry
Dorothy
Crowfoot Hodgkin was a pioneer in X-ray crystallography. This book
introduces you to the scientist, wife, mother, and peace activist.
The science is covered beautifully and in a way that is accessible
to non-specialists but it is her story that you will remember long
after you finish the book.
