Ruth Sime’s biography Lise Meitner (University of California Press,
$16.95, ISBN 0 520 20860 9) gets the softback treatment at the end of
this month. Described by physicist Tania Monteiro in her review for New
Scientist as a “magnificent biography that should help rescue Meitner from
oblivion”. Definitely unmissable.
