Scientists, reformers, artists and inventors are profiled here one for each day of the year, with names such as Mahatma Gandhi, Leonardo da Vinci and Marie Curie among them.
Each entry is brief, giving enough to explain who the person was, what they did and why it still matters, and the daily arrangement mixes the famous with figures whose work is less widely known. That combination is the book's strength, since readers meet the names they expected and several they did not. Written plainly, it serves as light biography and as a reference for school projects.
How the entries work:
• One short biographical profile for each day of the year.
• Figures drawn from science, politics, art and humanitarian work.
• Well-known names set beside less familiar changemakers.
• Entries written for students and general readers alike.
Suited to school students, to teachers looking for daily classroom material and to readers who enjoy short biography; published by OM Books and available from Boipoka.
