SECONDHAND BOOKS | SCIENCE

A biography of Pauling who roamed across the scientific disciplines, from chemistry to biology to medical research. He decried the internment of Japanese-Americans in World War Two, agitated against nuclear weapons, promoted vitamin C as a cure for the common cold and researched the idea of DNA.

1995, First edition, first printing. A very good copy only marked by a small circular sticker shadow on the front free endpaper and some creasing to the top corner of the text block. The d/w is unclipped and near fine with light edge rubbing.
