Jagadish Chavidra Bose: The First Modern Scientist [Hardcover] [Apr 01, 2002] Salwi, Dilip M.

Physicist, inventor, pioneer and visionary, Jagadish Chandra Bose was the first modern scientist of India. In the late nineteenth century it was hard to believe that an Indian could become a scientist. Working in primitive conditions, without any financial help and constantly battling the scepticism of the scientific establishment, Jagdish Chandra Bose invented the first instruments of wireless telegraphy - the technology that is the basis for all communication today.
