In terms of practical accomplishments helping to better the lives of people today Madame Marie Curie far exceeds the achievements of any other modern or scientific person Anybody who is in a hospital that uses an XRay machine is using technology developed by Marie Curie Any cancer patient who is undergoing radiation treatment to prolong life is using a procedure discovered by Marie Curie Anybody who turns on a light bulb in their house is likely using power from a nuclear power plant based on discoveries made by Marie Curie The list of discoveries made by Marie Curie goes on and on not the least of which it was the discoveries of Marie Curie of nuclear fission that made the Atomic Bomb and other nuclear weapons possible Yet except for a few academics and watchers of The Discovery Channel the name of Marie Curie is largely unknown Ask a hundred men on the street if they know who Marie Curie is or was not more than one of them will have ever heard her If you ask the same group if they have ever heard of Albert Einstein all of them will have heard of him Yet Albert Einstein was only concerned with theoretical physics and his own theories None of his discoveries have yet been proven or confirmed None have been made into a machine like the common XRay Machine now seen in all major hospitals Marie Curie suffered from a form of discrimination experienced by almost all women of academic accomplishment Her discoveries were not taken seriously or were often credited to some man in her background Always it was assumed that the real work was done by some man and that the woman was just a wall flower

Mary McAuliffes Dawn of the Belle Epoque took the reader from the multiple disasters of 18701871 through the extraordinary reemergence of Paris as the cultural center of the Western world Now in Twilight of the Belle Epoque McAuliffe portrays Paris in full flower at the turn of the twentieth century where creative dynamos such as Picasso Matisse Stravinsky Debussy Ravel Proust Marie Curie Gertrude Stein Jean Cocteau and Isadora Duncan set their respective circles on fire with a barrage of revolutionary visions and discoveries Such dramatic breakthroughs were not limited to the arts or sciences as innovators and entrepreneurs such as Louis Renault André Citroën Paul Poiret François Coty and so many othersincluding those magnificent men and women in their flying machinesemphatically demonstrated But all was not well in this world remembered in hindsight as a golden age and wrenching struggles between Church and state as well as between haves and havenots shadowed these years underscored by the evermoreominous drumbeat of the approaching Great Wara cataclysm that would test the mettle of the City of Light even as it brutally brought the Belle Epoque to its close Through rich illustrations and evocative narrative McAuliffe brings this remarkable era from 1900 through World War I to vibrant life
