About this title

Review:

"This marvelous book brings together the story of C60 in the words of many of those who played an important role in the work. The very well-written introduction by Nobel Laureate Harold Kroto brings a clear perspective to the whole story showing how the works of the contributors fit together. Altogether, this is a wonderful window into the very human thoughts of scientists at all levels as they pursue their dreams."
― Prof. Robert F. Curl, Nobel Laureate
