This was a wonderful read full of beauty, rage, bravery, humour, and much more. It covers the experiences of several scientists in @scientistsforxr.earth. It's human in all the best ways, never maudlin but full of love for this world.

This is an absolutely marvellous and inspiring book that everyone should read

All scientists who have yet to stick their heads above the parapet should read it and act accordingly
