Great Feuds in Science: Ten of the Liveliest Disputes Ever
The dramatic stories of ten historic feuds: How they altered the course of discovery-and shaped the modern world

Hall Hellman tells the lively stories of ten of the most outrageous and intriguing disputes from the seventeenth to the twentieth centuries. Bringing the cataclysmic clash of ideas and personalities to colorful life, Hellman explores both the science and the spirit of the times. Along the way, he reveals that scientific feuds are fueled not only by the purest of intellectual disagreements, but also by intransigence, ambition, jealousy, politics, faith, and the irresistible human urge to be right.

"Unusual insight into the development of science . . . I was excited by this book and enthusiastically recommend it to general as well as scientific audiences." -American Scientist
"Hellman has assembled a series of entertaining tales. . . . many fine examples of heady invective without parallel in our time." -Nature
"An entertaining and informative account of the unusual personalities and sometimes bitter rivalries of some of the world's greatest scientific minds." -Publishers Weekly

"A fascinating new book which details some of the most famous disputes of the ages."-Courier Mail

"Dry science history turns into entertaining reading without sacrificing historical accuracy." -The Christchurch Press
"Great Feuds in Science is wonderful history, as the reader learns how scientists had to fight with religious leaders and other scientists to get their work recognized, accepted, and even get the credit for it!" -Bookviews
