Win LAB GIRL by Hope Jahren

We’re giving away a bunch of our favorite books from 2016. Up for grabs next: three copies of Lab Girl by Hope Jahren.

Here’s what I wrote about it in our Best of 2016 round-up:

Like the plants and trees that Hope Jahren studies, Lab Girl is the story of trying to find purchase. Purchase for a girl then young woman then professor who wants to live a life of science in a world that doesn’t particularly like science, and women scientists in particular. Months after listening to Lab Girl, that is what has stuck with me—Jahren’s will to define a life for herself as a scientist, mother, teacher, friend, and colleague that defies easy categorization or ready-made role. That she has created a meaningful life, insisted on and fought for that life, reminds us that it can be done.
