100 Years of Nobel Prizes

A statistical analysis and interpretation of the more than 700 Nobel prizes given in the fields of Chemistry, Physics, Medicine, Peace, Literature, and Economics between 1901 and 2000—the first 100 years of the awards existence. The book also looks at whether there are any common factors among Nobel winners, no matters the year or the field in which the award was given. It finds interesting evidence that there well might be.
