Jim Ottaviani Book order

In Einstein, writer Jim Ottaviani and artist Jerel Dye take us behind the veneer of Einstein's celebrity, painting a complex and intimate portrait of the world's most well-known scientist.

In the graphic novel Astronauts: Women on the Final Frontier, Jim Ottaviani and illustrator Maris Wicks capture the great humor and incredible drive of Mary Cleave, Valentina Tereshkova, and the first women in space. The U.S. may have put the first man on the moon, but it was the Soviet space program that made Valentina Tereshkova the first woman in space. It took years to catch up, but soon NASA’s first female astronauts were racing past milestones of their own. The trail-blazing women of Group 9, NASA’s first mixed gender class, had the challenging task of convincing the powers that be that a woman’s place is in space, but they discovered that NASA had plenty to learn about how to make space travel possible for everyone.

Alan Turing, a pivotal figure in World War II, is renowned for deciphering the German Enigma code, which significantly contributed to the Allies' victory. Post-war, he advanced modern computer science with his development of the universal Turing machine and the Imitation Game, an enduring AI test. Despite his monumental contributions, Turing faced persecution due to his sexuality, ultimately leading to his tragic demise. Jim Ottaviani and Leland Purvis portray him as an eccentric genius whose legacy continues to influence contemporary science and technology.

From Feynman author Jim Ottaviani and artist Leland Myrick comes a gripping biography of Stephen Hawking, one of the most important scientists of our time.

Jim Ottaviani and Leland Purvis show Turing to be an eccentric, persecuted genius and a groundbreaking theoretician whose seminal work still plays a role in the science and telecommunication systems that fuel our modern world.

Jim Ottaviani returns with an action-packed account of the three greatest primatologists of the last century. Tackling Goodall, Fossey, and Galdikas in turn, and covering the highlights of their respective careers, Primates is an informative look at primatology and at the lives of three of the most remarkable women scientists of the 20th century.

This title tells the story of the great man's life from his childhood in Long Island to his work on the Manhattan Project and the Challenger disaster.

This graphic novel presents a fictionalized retelling of the historic moon landing, blending imaginative storytelling with rich illustrations. It explores the challenges and triumphs faced by astronauts, capturing the spirit of exploration and human ingenuity. The narrative delves into the personal stories of the characters involved, highlighting their motivations and the cultural impact of this monumental event. Through its engaging visuals and compelling plot, the book offers a fresh perspective on a pivotal moment in history.

Einstein looked up to him, the Nazis tried to abduct him, his institute in Copenhagen hosted just about every Nobel prize winner in physics you can name (and then some), and Winston Churchill considered him a dangerous, dangerous man. His friends and enemies agreed: Niels Bohr was more than the father of quantum mechanics -- he was one of the most important figures of the 20th century. The Tony Award-winning Broadway play "Copenhagen" barely scratched the surface... Suspended in Language tells the complete story of Niels Bohr's amazing life, discoveries, and his pervasive influence on science, philosophy, and politics. Told in an engaging and accessible mixture of text and comics, it includes a full color supplement on how to teleport just like the pros do -- and why you might not want to
