Portraits of Nobel Laureates over the past two decades.
German photographer Peter Badge (born 1974) has been traveling the world since 2000 for this comprehensive project. More than 400 encounters have now provided him with incomparable insight into the worlds of those who "have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind"--as Alfred Nobel described it in his last will and testament. This book is, however, much more than the mere "making of" of a long-term photographic undertaking. Ingenious Encounters reflects on the personalities, achievements and lives of the laureates from a unique perspective, both unusual and fascinating. Badge's impressive accounts of his experiences have been compiled and penned by author Sandra Zarrinbal to create a captivating book that defies categorization--as authentic as a diary, as informative as a work of popular science, as thrilling as an adventure documentary, as touching as a bildungsroman and as amusing as a celebrity biography.
