I love how you have recommended books beside the article, that was very smart of this person to do that. I also love how you had a picture of the person. ~ i thank my teacher Mrs.O'Hern for showing me this website. It was very nice of her to give me a list of resourses for Marie Sklodowska Curie

I am currently reading Marie Curie's life story written by her daughter. Both Marie's and Pierre's complete determination to push on with their research, often through exhaustion and hardship was incredible. Today, we owe them a debt of gratitute for their hard work and contribution to medical science. Marie and Pierre would also be incredibly proud of their two daughters - especially Irene who followed in her mothers footsteps along with her husband Frederic Joliot. Both grandchildren Helene, a nuclear physicist, and Pierre, a biologist are very successful individuals. are
