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. 001434850 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001434850 650_0 $$aScience$$zEngland$$zLondon$$xHistory. 001434850 650_0 $$aMemorials$$zEngland$$zLondon. 001434850 650_6 $$aSciences$$zAngleterre$$zLondres$$xHistoire. 001434850 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001434850 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001434850 7001_ $$aHargittai, Magdolna. 001434850 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHargittai, Istvan.$$tScience in London : A Guide to Memorials.$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG, ©2021$$z9783030623326 001434850 852__ $$bebk 001434850 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-62333-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001434850 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1434850$$pGLOBAL_SET 001434850 980__ $$aBIB 001434850 980__ $$aEBOOK 001434850 982__ $$aEbook 001434850 983__ $$aOnline 001434850 994__ $$a92$$bISE
