Charles Darwin. Not only left out of the number one slot for obvious PCness, but actually left off the list altogether.
Polls of REAL scientist always put him at or near the top.
Any list without Gauss is no list at all
Hey refer BBC. The top scientist of all time is Charles Darwin. In 2005 a pole taken from all the world scientists. They all voted for Darwin only. I saw this documentary... Here is the list...
1. Darwin
2. Einstein (E = m*C*C)
3. Einstein (Theory of relativity)
4. Mendeleev (Periodic tables)
5. Copernicus (Found the position of earth)
6. Gregor Mendel (Genetics)
7. Louis Pasteur (Germ theory)
8. Fleming (Penicillin)
9. Leeuwenhoek (Microorganisms)
10. Newton
THE PERSON WHO WROTE THIS FORGOT ABOUT THE UTENSILS HE USE IN HIS KITCHEN .INVENTOR ALUMINIUM.
CHARLES MARTIN HALL
Every scientist is great because every scientist has given something to us. We can't make a list of top 10
You all need to learn how to read and study History. Who created the scientific method? wrote THE analysis of optics? the founder of experimental psychology? described the finite speed of light and did it all in the 11th century -- ALHAZEN (Al-Haytham) One of many Islamic Scientist who europeans stole from.
How abou the father of both modern medicine and geology - AVICENNA -
I agree that Darwin should be up there but to imply that Einstein, Newton, and Pasteur are not REAL scientist... i dont know what to say..
i do not belive in this top 10 scientist list.What about the father of chemistry jabar bin hayan and ibn-ul haithem the master of optics & eyes.
hey guys!! i can't beleive wat hav happened to all of you
definitely i think that sir issac newton is the gretest of all scientists followed by einstein!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
we can't even imagine the whole world without their contributions!
yes,i agree all are great but newton is the father of our modern science!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nbody can neglect this universal truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think that there not the top ten
I am surprised that Arab scientists do not top this list? Most of the European scientists mentioned on your list acquired much of their information and knowledge originally from discoveries and breakthroughs of Arab scientists.
All the scientists are great .You cannot choose 10 great scientists of all time. Instead why don't you just choose the scientists on the basis of their field in which they contributed. Like 10 great scientists in mathematics, 10 great scientists in physics etc.
Because each scientist was talented in a different way .The field he may have contributed may be different. So we shouldn’t ignore anyone. 'The top 10 scientists of all time' always creates controversies (refer other articles on the internet). People who like a particular field try to promote the greatest scientists in that field.
Also we could not just select 10 great persons from a list of millions of scientists. We should also consider the fact that technology like today wasn't available during ancient time. Who invented the wheel, fire? They are interesting questions to ask and we may not find an answer. I am not saying that the man who invented the wheel or fire can be included in the top 10 list, what I try to say is that everyone is great.
cannot understand at all why Darwin is not only in the top 3 but even in the list. Just rediculous.
I guess the right word would be "discoverer than inventor". I guess the French Chemist and Tax Collector Lavoisier should not be forgotten. Same is True with Glenn Seaborg, Michael Faraday, Alfred Nobel, Henri Becquerel, Wilhelm Roentgen, Joseph Lister, Alexander Fleming, Gregor Mendel, Marie and Pierre Curie, Galilei, Copernicus and even the Greeks like the Father of Biology Aristotle. Democritus of Abdera also made a significant contribution in the development of our concept on the composition of matter. So many scientists deserves the recognition, but i personally, like Albert Einstein to be on the top list.
