This book describes the author's experience in the process of moving from child to scientist. Duncan T. Moore calls Greenler an "Ambassador for Science" and writes in the foreword that "he has done more than many Nobel Prize winners to bring the excitement of science and engineering to everyone." This book is a personal account that will be read with interest by a young person contemplating a career in science, by a scientist who has gone through such a process, and by a nonscientist who has an interest in how the enterprise of science works.
