Reviews
'Stefano Sandrone's wonderful gift to the readers of this book is an opportunity to spend a few precious private moments with 24 Nobel Prize winners. There are wisdom and valuable advice in each chapter, but it is the insights into each Nobelist as a real person, with real life stories, that makes this book very special.' Magdalena Skipper, Editor-in-Chief of Nature, 'sometimes funny, occasionally poignant, and always insightful ... Highly recommended for all readers.' Z. B. Johnson, Choice Connect
