| Resumen: |
Un objetivo principal de esta primera biografÃa de Robert Le Rossignol, ingeniero del proceso Haber, es atraer la atención de la comunidad cientÃfica sobre nuevas pruebas que permitan una reevaluación de los orÃgenes del proceso "Haber". Sin embargo, el alcance del libro es mucho más amplio y va más allá del descubrimiento de la "fijación" para dar cuenta de una vida distinta a la de Haber, llena de ciencia notable, circunstancias crueles, tragedia personal y benevolencia asombrosa, esta última hecha posible gracias a la generosa contribución de Haber. acuerdo financiero con Le Rossignol en relación con sus regalÃas de BASF. |
