One of the recent commendable works of the Nordic International University in the field of science is the second brochure titled "Those Who Became Stars in the Sky of Economic Science", which is being presented to a wide audience of readers.
The brochure compiles the lives and activities of 40 scientists who, in various years, were awarded the Nobel Prize for their important discoveries in the field of science, as well as interviews with them.
How have they contributed to society? What makes the paths they have walked in science and progress significant?
Discoveries, laws, and mechanisms may not immediately lead to practical applications, but becoming familiar with them helps the global population to understand their place in the universe and become more aware of their environment. Referring to the laureates collected in the book as "those who have brought the greatest benefit to humanity" is no exaggeration. Their lives and scientific activities can be a great source of inspiration and an example for readers.
This brochure is an important guide for economics students, young researchers, educators, and the general public (prepared for publication - Sherzod Mustafakulov, Xasan Sabirov, Nizomiddin Urmonov, Mukhtasar Isaqova).
