Overview

""Creative.... Readers of this book cannot help but get caught up in the students' voyages of discovery.... A powerful introduction to the challenges and the joys of doing science." -American Reference Books Annual 2003 "The introduction by Lederman should be required reading for all high school science teachers and students...[a] rare offering that talks to kids about something besides their problems.... [It] delightfully demonstrates that not all scientists are nerdy white men wearing thick eyeglasses." -San Jose Mercury News "This book comes along at a time of growing science illiteracy among Americans. If you know a young, potential scientist, this book would make a fine...gift with its insightful and inspiring stories." -Bookviews.com "A well-written, very interesting, book." -Science Books & Films
