Again out of my normal genre, Lab Girl by Hope Jahren is a memoir. The author writes about her life as a research scientist. Her area of interest is botany. The story she tells weaves from her childhood, meanders through her education and winds into her profession, marriage and motherhood. It was a book I enjoyed and I wish I could convince all young women to read. Hope Jahren sets an example of how it is possible for women to achieve many things. Her journey has unconventional experiences as a young professor. Road trips with research field studies and camping, both as a student and a professor, are described. It also touches on the impact of bipolar disorder on a person's life. The problem of funding for research is explored.
