      abstract = {This book introduces the reader to the statues, busts, and  memorial plaques of scientists, explorers, medicine men and  women, and inventors found in the bustling capital of the  United Kingdom, London. The former capital of the British  Empire, London remains a world center of trade, navigation,  finance and many more. It is also a hub of science, the  seat of the Royal Society, Royal Institution, Science  Museum, British Museum, Natural History Museum, and of  great institutions of higher education. The historical  figures depicted in these memorials are responsible for  creating great institutions, milestone discoveries,  contributions to the scientific and technological  revolutions, fighting against epidemics, advancing  medicine, and contributing to the progress seen during the  past four hundred years. This is a guidebook for the  visitor and the Londoner alike. It presents memorials that  everybody is familiar with and others that the authors  discovered during their years of painstaking research. The  750 images and the text, interlarded with anecdotes, is  both informative and entertaining.},
