One of the 20th century's greatest scientists, George Washington
Carver's influence is still being felt today. Rising from slavery to become one
of the world's most respected and honored men, he devoted his life to
understanding nature and the many uses for the simplest of plant life. He is
best known for developing crop-rotation methods for conserving nutrients in
soil and discovering hundreds of new uses for crops such as the peanut.
