The Bosch name is easily recognized as being linked to the world of engineering and industry, mostly due to Robert Bosch, the inventor of the spark plug and the founder of the company that bears his name. His nephew Carl was not far behind and was a powerful industrialist too. Besides he is also considered as one of the two scientists whose discoveries have helped save the most lives: 2.72 billion, according to the website ScienceHeroes.com. These are the scientific discoveries, and their protagonists, to whom we owe a tribute as being the greatest lifesavers of science.
