Gregor Mendel

Description:

Based on documents and publications relating to the life and research of Gregor Mendel, the discoverer of the fundamental laws of heredity and the father of modern genetics, this study examines the life of Mendel as scientist, as abbot, and as a man. A new picture of Mendel is presented, incorporating not only the circumstances under which his discoveries were made, but also the attitudes towards these new ideas, both among his contemporaries and in the years following his great achievement.
