Nobel Prizes


The Nobel Prizes have just been awarded. This is the medal that is given to the winners. What do you know about the Nobel Prize?  Who do you know who has received one? Alfred Nobel was a chemist, engineer, inventor, and businessman.  He left most of his fortune to endow 5 prizes for "those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind" in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and peace. 

 Take a look at the monetary amount that Alfred Nobel bequeathed and evaluate the present day worth of that gift from Krona or U.S. dollars and the value of his gift today.
