The original 3-vol. set helped fill a large gap in age-appropriate biographies in libraries. Later volumes offer students additional biographies of men and women who have helped define the modern world. Volumes 4-6 offer more than 100 additional biographies.
This book is a great book for anyone doing a research paper on a scientist or the work of a scientist. It's not full of graphic details, but it has enough to be helpful to a student in middle school or even high school, or anyone who is interested in science.
