Mauro Dardo presents the major achievements of twentieth-century physics as they emerged as the product of the genius of those physicists whose labors, since 1901, have been crowned with a Nobel Prize. Dardo's year-by-year chronicle, biographies and personal anecdotes bring to life the main events of the past hundred years. The work of the most famous physicists of the twentieth century is presented, often in the words and imagery of the prize-winners themselves.
