About this book

Voyage Through Time: Walks of Life to the Nobel Prize by Ahmed Zewail. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9789774246777.

From a beginning in an Egyptian Delta town and the port of Alexandria to the scenic vistas of sunny southern California, Ahmed Zewail takes us on a voyage through time - his own life and the split-second world of the femtosecond. In this engaging expose of his life and work until his receipt of the Nobel Prize in 1999, Zewail explores in non-technical language the landscape of molecules glimpsed on the scale of one quadrillionth of a second: the femtosecond, 0.000 000 000 000 001 second.
