Everyone knows Alfred Nobel as the creator of deadly explosives, who established the famous Nobel Prizes to atone for his sins against humanity. Less well known is the role of his father Emmanuel and brothers Robert and Ludwig as outstanding inventors who made a great contribution to the development of the Russian oil industry and weapons business. And very few readers in our country know about the personal lives of members of the Nobel family, about their difficult relationships with each other, about their role in the wars and revolutions of the XIX — early XX century. All this is told by the first biography of the famous family in the ZhZL series, written on the basis of a wide range of sources about the life and work of the Nobels in Sweden, Russia and other countries.
