The book is well written and gives a great sense of the changing times as the discoveries were made. The book has been thoughtfully and thoroughly researched...The level of detail especially about [the Bragg's] personal lives shows the considerable time and effort the author took in putting together this interesting and well-written book. The book would certainly appeal to any reader interested in the history or science or the research work of William and Lawrence Bragg. The personal accounts set the book apart and give the reader a feel for who William and Lawrence were and the journeys they underwent.--Scope


Lawrence Bragg...people's scientist
