Author: Anna Quindlen

It marched forward even when I was barely able to stand....It had been hard on all of us - not only missing Henry, but facing the idea that your whole world can change, suddenly irreversibly.

Other chemists of this country, of equal note, reject it, and prove in my opinion that it is premature, insufficient and false.

There are some good publications in it, which must be translated into the ordinary chemical language before they will be useful."

Author: Maria V. Snyder
