| Zusammenfassung: | The World Academy of Science (TWAS) has been front and centre during this remarkable transformation. This work tells the story of TWAS through the eyes of 11 eminent scientists associated with the Academy. They speak of the organization's challenges and triumphs, and describe what TWAS has meant for their careers and the careers of thousands of scientists in the developing world. They also explore the challenges that lie ahead for TWAS and, more generally, for science in the South. It is a story of unprecedented global change - and an account of what must be done to ensure that all nations can share in the benefits that emerge when science is woven into the fabric of society |
