Science Suisse

Following the success of “PHOTOsuisse”, “SCIENCEsuisse” deals with science in Switzerland, with twenty-five textual portraits of selected researchers, depicting their development, career milestones, and outstanding research projects from the vantage point of distinguished science journalists. Two essays seek to situate Switzerland as a research venue. Thirteen critical theses deal with research and its general conditions in Switzerland. The texts are illustrated by an extensive photo essay on the researchers and their work. Five aspects lead through the entire publication: where we come from; the world of tomorrow; our health; securing the energy supply; preserving the biosphere.
