Linus Pauling: References & Edit History
More Articles On This Topic
Additional Reading
Ted Goertzel and Ben Goertzel, Linus Pauling: A Life in Science and Politics (1995); and Thomas Hager, Force of Nature: The Life of Linus Pauling (1995), are biographies that make good use of the Ava Helen and Linus Pauling Papers of Oregon State University, though both books are weakened by errors. Although not a critical study, Barbara Marinacci (ed.), Linus Pauling in His Own Words: Selected Writings, Speeches, and Interviews (1995), provides a useful compendium of Pauling’s prepared thoughts, partly making up for the fact that he never wrote an autobiography.
