This is the biography of a remarkable, many-talented man and yet a largely forgotten scientist. Frederick Soddy is an intruiging figure who not only won a Nobel Prize and became Professor of Physical Chemistry at Oxford University, but was also deeply concerned with and involved in politics, economics, and the role of science in the world.
