内容説明・目次

内容説明

The Nobel Prize is the only scientific prize that has achieved worldwide recognition among the general public. Each year, announcement of the prizes is covered by the national news media, and countries and universities brag about how many Nobel Prize winners they have. As of 2015, 172 individuals have received the Nobel Prize in chemistry. This book explores the reasons why the Nobel Prize has not been awarded to various deserving chemists over the years, and points specifically to eleven deceased chemists in particular who did not receive the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
