Prémio Pfizer
O Prémio Pfizer (em inglês: Pfizer Award), é um galardão atribuído anualmente pela History of Science Society (HSS) dos Estados Unidos.[1]
Este prémio destina-se a distinguir o autor da publicação de um livro sobre história da ciência. Esse livro deve ser escrito em língua inglesa e tem de ser publicado num dos três anos precedentes à atribuição do prémio.
O prêmio foi criado em 1958 e inclui uma medalha e uma quantia em dinheiro no valor de U$2.500. De acordo com as regras, obras com mais de dois autores não são aceitas e obras que sejam compostas por mais de um volume só podem concorrer após a publicação de todos os volumes, além disso a premiação não pode ser dividida. Também é preciso salientar que, eventualmente, são condecoradas obras que tratem da história da medicina ou da tecnologia . [1]
