Shortlisted for the Duff Cooper Prize and the Marsh Biography Award Dorothy Hodgkin (1910-1994) was renowned for her important work on penicillin, vitamin B12 and insulin. Fully engaged with the political and social currents of her time, she participated in some of the greatest upheavals of the 20th century: women's education; the globalisation of science; the rise and fall of communism; and international peace movements
