Mark Edward is een professionele mentalist gespecialiseerd in de magie van de geest. Zijn verbazingwekkende gedachtenlezende technieken becommentariëren onze beperkte observatievermogens en onze terughoudendheid om te geloven dat manipulatie zelfs de scherpzinnigste onder ons gemakkelijk kan overkomen. Zijn kunst daagt onze perceptie van de werkelijkheid uit en onthult de verborgen mechanismen die onze beslissingen en overtuigingen beïnvloeden. Door zijn optredens stimuleert hij tot reflectie over de aard van de geest en het verrassende gemak waarmee onze zintuigen misleid kunnen worden.

"A touching three-dimensional portrait of the Polish-born scientist and two-time Nobel Prize winner" ( Kirkus ) Madame Curie, the discoverer of radium and radioactivityOne hundred years ago, Marie Curie discovered radioactivity, for which she won the Nobel Prize in physics. In 1911 she won an unprecedented second Nobel Prize, this time in chemistry, for isolating new radioactive elements. Despite these achievements, or perhaps because of her fame, she has remained a saintly, unapproachable genius. From family documents and a private journal only recently made available, Susan Quinn at last tells the full human story. From the stubborn sixteen-year-old studying science at night while working as a governess, to her romance and scientific partnership with Pierre Curie-an extraordinary marriage of equals-we feel her defeats as well as her successes: her rejection by the French Academy, her unbearable grief at Pierre's untimely and gruesome death, and her retreat into a love affair with a married fellow scientist, causing a scandal which almost cost her the second Nobel Prize. In Susan Quinn's fully dimensional portrait, we come at last to know this complicated, passionate, brilliant woman.
