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

The middle Bennet sister, Mary, gives her own view of the events of Pride and Prejudice and finds love for herself during the events of the story. Two young men, an officer and a tutor vie for the attentions of the plain sister, and their love helps her to blossom.
