Abstract
IET Library and Archives Manager Anne Locker talks to us about the recently catalogued "La Radiologie et la Guerre" by Marie Curie, the physicist and chemist who conducted pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win the Nobel prize twice, and the only person to win the Nobel Prize in two different scientific fields.
