内容説明
Herman Mark was internationally known for his research on the synthesis, structure, characterization, reactions, and properties of natural and synthetic polymers. In this volume he describes not only his research contributions, but also his First World War adventures (he was the most highly decorated Austrian officer, with fourteen medals for bravery), the nature of his survival and escape from the Nazis to the United States via Canada, and his various contributions
to the Allied effort during World War II. The volume is rich with photographs covering Mark's nearly 100 years.
