Notes

"We founded the annual Breakthrough Prizes to encourage public recognition of these pioneers, not just in the sense of acclaim, but in the literal sense: to ensure that they are known beyond the scientific world (where they are already superstars), in global society. In this collection, Brigitte Lacombe masterfully captures these men and women as thinkers and human beings, casting a bold light on their passion, compassion, and curiosity."--From foreword.
Published as a limited edition of 1000 copies.
