O'Brien, Donough <br/><br/>
'Who?' :  the most remarkable people you've never heard of 
Donough O'Brien ; foreword by Frederick Forsyth 
 - ix, 218 p. :  col. ill. ;  25 cm. 
<br/><br/> Includes index.  In a world dominated by shallow celebrity, many remarkable people often remain unknown and unrecognised. This book brings the unrecognised to recognition - with over 200 names that should trip off the tongue, but don't. 
<br/><br/> Readers will discover: Who was John Kennedy's first dangerous lover? Who made rock music possible? Who created the 'Green Revolution'? Who was Simon Cowell's mentor? Who stopped Catholic priests marrying? Who invented the 'hole in the wall' ATM? Whose hand does the French Foreign Legion salute? Who inspired the Red Cross? Who built the first bra? Whose driving error started World War I? Whose 'devil's paintbrush' killed millions? Which doctors finished off Elvis and Michael Jackson? Who first broke the sound barrier? Whose blood cells are 'immortal'?
