Summary:
In 1895, a German scientist named Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen discovered the existence of X-rays. His work led to the 1901 Nobel Prize in Physics, and X-rays would come to play a prominent role in the research of Marie Curie, Henri Bequerel, Thomas Edison, and other towering figures in science and medicine. X-Rays examines how Roentgen used the scientific method to achieve his aims and the applications of his discovery. The book also explains how Roentgen s discovery continues to lay the groundwork for new discoveries in astronomy, biology, and more.
