Publisher's Synopsis
Encounters That Changed the World explores friendships, love affairs, chance meetings, creative partnerships and political unions that have altered the universe as we know it.
From Henry VIII's great passion for Lady Ann Boleyn which prompted the establishment of the church of England, to Marie Sklodowska's marriage to Pierre Curie, which led to the discovery of radium, ENCOUNTERS explores these extraordinary relationships and the powerful events they effected, as well as asking the question: what if?
