  • Nobel Prizes

    Once a year,at a special ceremony a few dist.inguished people are awarded Nobel Prizes.The founder of these prizes was Alfred Bernhard Nobel (1833-1896),a Swedish scientist.

    Nobel discovered the explosive called dynamite.This was much safer to use than earlier explosives.He made a large fortune from this and other di.scoveries and inventions.However,it saddened him that his explosives were so widely used for warfare.

    Nobel left most of his money.to establish five prizes.They are warded for services to physics,chemistry,physiology or medicine,literature,and peace.It is considered a very great honour to win one of these prizes.
