Reviews

"..an excellent read for anyone interested in both history and science. The book is an insightful treatment that combines Goodall's historic discoveries with the story of her life and a brief glimpse at the history of colonial Africa... I highly recommend this book." --NSTA Recommends, December 5, 2008 (reviewed for Grade Level: 8-12) "Meg Greene's biography gives a vivid account of how Goodall's techniques of close interaction with her subjects changed the stuffy of ethnology." --Science Scope magazine, January 1, 2009 (Nat'l Science Teachers Assoc. journal devoted specifically to middle and jr high science education) "This is a fascinating story of a naive young woman who started her work without even a college degree and eventually developed into a dedicated scientist and a world-famous conservationist and humanitarian." -- The Latham Letter, winter 2009
