Jane Goodall by Meg Greene
Describes how Jane Goodall's work challenged and changed perceptions of the relations between the primate and human worlds. This title reveals that Goodall found solace in her home at Gombe from the trials of life that included a divorce, the death of her second husband, criticisms from fellow scientists, and a spiritual crisis.
".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
