Editorial Reviews

Wild Science Careers series. These books introduce field scientists in geology, chemistry or ecology. The texts describe the work of the featured men and women, how they developed their interests and expertise, and their particular contributions. Photographs of the scientists at work and diagrams throughout help enliven the informative but somewhat choppy texts. Detailed information on required education and salary expectations is included.
