Marie Curie represents modern science. Her considerable lifetime achievementsincluding being the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person to win two Nobel Prizes, the only woman to win in two fields, and the only person to win in multiple sciencesare studied by schoolchildren across the globe. "Making Marie Curie "explores what went into making this icon of science. It is not a traditional biography, or one that seeks to uncover the real Marie Curie. Instead, Eva Hemmungs Wirten draws readers through major events in Marie Curie s life, tracing a career spanning two centuries and one World War, in order to paint a composite picture of her rising celebrity. In doing so, Hemmungs Wirten provides an innovative and historically grounded account of how modern science emerges in tandem with celebrity culture, through the power of print and under the influence of intellectual property."
