The Song of the Cell by Siddhartha Mukherjee ~ a Review

by Donna Huber


As some of you are aware, I have a degree in biology. I wanted to be a zookeeper which I did for a year. Now I write about science. Partly because I want to improve my own science writing, partly because I like reading about science, and a tiny part of why I wanted to read this book is because I work in an adjacent field.

Everything Is Just Beginning by Erin Bartels ~ a Review

by Susan Roberts


"I wasn't invited.
I should make that clear right off the bat.
Because I don't want you to get the wrong idea about me.  I'm nobody special.  I don't know anybody important and nobody important knows me.  I just happened to know somebody who knew somebody.  Or rather, I happened to have the same name as somebody who knew somebody."  (p 13)
