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

Reviews

This book was funny yet sentimental. It gave a look on how one man changed the life of a young lady through all changes in her life. IT also shows how she helped her Mom through the challanges of watching a love die. IT made me cry and remember him too. The author of this book is my sister. Read it, it may help you through a similar challange. Thank you for writing it Mare!
