Luminous Fish: Tales of Science and Love | Lynn Margulis
1 post | 1 read
This collection of linked stories by internationally renowned evolutionist Lynn Margulis reveals science from the inside--its thrills, disappointments, and triumphs. A largely fictional account, it draws on her decades of experience to portray the poor judgment, exhaustion, and life-threatening dedication of real scientists--their emotional preoccupations, sexual distractions, and passions for research. The esoteric, demanding, sometimes exhilarating world of science emerges from the shadows of its passive narrative into the sunlight of the personal voice of those who attempt to wrench secrets directly from nature. All of us who struggle to balance family, professional, and social commitments with intellectual quest will be intrigued by the humanity of these tales.

#feistyfeb Day 14: #lovetitles

Believe it or not, this is the closest thing to a #lovetitle I have on my shelf.

twohectobooks @TrishB I checked Goodreads and apparently I've only read a couple of books with "love" in the title over the course of my whole life, so I'm not terribly surprised not to find any on my shelves! 8y
