I have planned to create a series of blogs celebrating the lives of Great scientists on whose shoulder scientists of today stand. In his letter to Robert Hooke, Newton wrote, “If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.” So, these are the persons we should be grateful to for the giant leaps in the field of science and technology.
Instead of my usual way to write long posts on a single topic, I plan to design the blog series Giants of Science into seasons. In the first season, I would discuss a single scientist’s works spread over several blog posts accounting for the season. The following season, I would take another scientist’s life into account and talk about his life and works. The format will be simple, just like a TV series. I hope you enjoy it!
In the first season we will discussing the life of Great American Physicist Richard Feynman. I hope it will be of around 5 blogposts each floating around 800-1000 words.
