When every scientist was young, they were a kid exploring the world, curious about life, reading, playing, being. And when they got older, that curiosity and those skills, were part of their journey into science.

Messner, in a way different from her Next President book, shows us how children grow up to make a difference in the world.  A well-crafted overview of scientists throughout history, even-handedly showing us many women along with the men, and from all over the world.
