About this audiobook
In 1896, a man named Alfred Nobel died, leaving behind a fortune from the invention of dynamite. In his will, he announced the creation of five prizes for people who have helped humankind. This is the story of eight of the prize winners--men and women honored for their innovations in creating a more peaceful world.
