Breaking Through the Spiral Ceiling: An American Woman Becomes a DNA Scientist
Description
Laura Hoopes takes you along as she tries to enter science in the 1960's in the post-Sputnik science education frenzy, only to find doors closed to women. She persists, makes a career of molecular gerontology and insists on making space for marriage and children in her life. This inspiring read says, "Yes, you can," to women who have dreams of their own.
Story Behind The Book
I love hockey. I love romance. When NaNoWriMo came up for 2008 the two merged in my mind. I actually started plotting the second in this series which became Summer Fling, but Kip and Mandy took over demanding their story be told. It helps that I have a thing for goalies and the Flames goalie is their star player. Y'know in my opinion.
