Priscilla's 4th Post

So, after finishing this book, I came to the realization that I always had the idea that scientists never had much of a life. Reading about their childhoods, marriages, and schooling makes me realize that like a young child who believes that their teacher lives inside of the classroom, I believed that scientists lived inside of a building only conducting experiments and coming up with equations or ideas that have lived on for many years. Crazy idea, huh? Well, until this book and this class I never had the need to actually read about the lives of any scientists, so to me they were not real people. Thank you Michael Guillen for opening new doors for me.
