The life of a single influential scientist may be interesting in itself, but when connected with the surrounding stories, history takes on greater meaning that doesnt come from memorizing time, dates, names, and discoveries.This book seeks to tell the story of one of those scientist: Dr. Lise Meitner. Her dreams of school, degrees, math, and science led her to one of mankinds greatest discoveries. As you read through her life, and work on the included study questions, you will discover that tenaciousness pays off!
