When the Giraffe still had Admirers
How Four Scientists Stumbled Across Their Discoveries
by Michael Lichtwarck-Aschoff
Description
In “When The Giraffe Still Had Admirers” we get to know Claude Bernard and Louis Pasteur, Antoine Laurent de Lavoisier and Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire. Lichtwarck-Aschoff takes their lives and discoveries – often resulting from serendipity – as the starting point for his stories. The enthralling read makes literature so eloquent, full of wit and powerful that this author is no longer just an insider tip.
