Good book that reminds me why I like memoirs submitted by Susan4Pax -prev. sueij- on July 21, 2018, 4:09pm _Lab Girl_ is a memoir about science, about living with bipolar disorder, about an amazing and unlikely friendship, about being female in a traditionally male field, and is a joyous ode to the miracle of plant life. It’s fun and easy to read, taught me new things about trees, and reminded me that sometimes I really do like memoirs.

Science! submitted by tbbrown76 on June 20, 2020, 9:29pm Hope Jahren tells a nice story from her humble beginnings to a respected scientist. The science doesn't get in the way of the story and the personal details makes it all the more compelling. It is the "Dearborn Reads" book for last year. I have a class set, now. Highly recommended especially for girls in STEM.

An okay book submitted by haslamc on July 12, 2023, 12:12pm This book was a good memoir of a female scientist. If you are in academia, it may feel a little too much.
