3 comments about Portraits of Great American Scientists.
- An interesting approach to understanding the scientists that have truly shaped our world as we know it. I attend a school in Illinois where this book was launched, and have met both Dr. Lederman as well as the student authors presented here. They really did enjoy making this book, and put quite a variety within it: from paleontologists to physicists, each presented with each others unique writing style. With this intimate view of the scientists themselves, the reader may achieve a personal outlook of what makes a great scientist, as well as answer the question: What is science? How does science work for us? as those interviewed here describe their work and lives in layman terms. A good book for a young reader interested in science.
- This is a great read not only for young adults but for anyone who wants to learn about why scientists are drawn to science. You also get easy-to-follow lessons on science that the average person can understand. We get glimpses into their personal life and how they overcame whatever barriers were in place to achieve what they did.
- I think this is the perfect book to introduce young people to the fascinating world of scientific discovery. I espeicially liked the chapter on Edward Witten: the Theory of Everything by Maria Wilson. I thought that it was the best chapter in the entire book! Maria Wilson is amazing. I hope she writes her own book someday. I would totally buy a book by Maria Wilson.
