If there is no Prize in Science, how did Marie Curie win it? If I am wrong than Google is wrong. And his quote I took from a book I read, with footnotes. I'm not saying you are wrong, just saying where I got my material.

Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize on two separate occasions. Once with her husband Pierre Curie and Henri Becquerel in Physics (1903) and once by herself in Chemistry (1911). She was a truly remarkable woman (her daughter also won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1935). The categories for the Nobel prize are: Physics, Chemistry, Medicine or Physiology, Literature, Peace, and Economics (set up by the Bank of Sweden, not Alfred Nobel). You can read more about the Nobel Prize and laureates at nobelprize.org.
