English author David Herbert Lawrence wrote novels, short stories, plays, poems, essays, travelogues, and paintings. He was also a literary critic. His modernist pieces support sexuality, vigour, and instinct while reflecting on modernity, societal estrangement, and industrialisation. He was the target of censorship trials for four of his best-known novels: Sons and Lovers (1913), The Rainbow (1915), Women in Love (1920), and Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928) because of their extreme depictions of romance, passion, and profanity.

As with most Nobel laureates, Sir Clive Granger is not well-known, but to every econometrics student and scholar, he is.

In 2003, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economic Science for his groundbreaking work in the field of econometric analysis of time series data. View Less
