BLACK PIONEERS OF SCIENCE AND INVENTION BY LOUIS HABER

When first published thirty years ago, this was one of the few books devoted to profiling the lives and achievements of Black scientists. All of the fourteen profiled scientists were either unknown or had been ignored. Louis Haber changed all of that by showing young people that Blacks have contributed much in scientific research. In these remarkable stories, you will see how these men overcame racial, educational and economic obstacles to produce discoveries that have impacted upon our lives. The stories of these pioneers are just as significant today as they were thirty years ago. Black Pioneers is a classic work in its field. This book is an excellent introduction for young people and old who are curious about the contributions of Blacks in science. 272 Pgs Paperback
