The mid-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were a time of many scientific discoveries. There were new technologies like radio waves as well as wider discoveries, like the theory of evolution, that shed light upon the laws governing the natural world. In 1999, the scientist, Albert Einstein was named Person of the Century by a reputed magazine and it was no accident. For it was the work that he and his fellow scientists did, that changed the world human beings live in. From Bose's revelation that plants can feel electricity and heat very similarly to animals, the Curies' discovery of radioactive elements, to Einstein's theory that all times and spaces can only be defined relative to each other, each scientist in this collection has drastically changed the way we view ourselves and the world around us.
Anant Pai was the creator of the two most popular comic book series, Tinkle and Amar Chitra Katha. His works deal with the retelling of mythological tales, folk stories, and biographies of historical figures. He has been considered one of pioneer creators of Indian comics.
