A Tribute to Rudolf and Milena Zahradník

Professor Rudolf Zahradník was the President of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic from 1993 to 2001, later its Honorary President. Above all, he was a prominent figure in scientific and social life, far beyond the borders of his homeland. In this book, which is also a tribute to his wife Milena, the Zahradníks are remembered by friends, family, colleagues and pupils, all of whom had the opportunity to experience Rudolf Zahradník's kind yet unflinching presence and his wife's endless affability.
