Of all the inventions of the nineteenth century, the scientist is one of the most striking. The ideas, discoveries and inventions of nineteenth-century scientists transformed the world: lives were longer and healthier, cities and empires grew, societies became urban rather than agrarian, the local became global. This book tells that story.
