Carbon Queen: The Remarkable Life of Nanoscience Pioneer Mildred Dresselhaus
Maia WeinstockIf you're looking for a new book to read, I highly recommend @20tauri's Carbon Queen. I came across Prof Millie Dresselhaus's work in my first year @NPL, and I went on to reference lots of her papers. Loved learning more about her background, life & career. Great stuff, Maia ๐

Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law
Mary RoachFinally started reading @mary_roach's new book, Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law (sold as 'Animal Vegetable Criminal' in the UK). And - unsurprisingly - it's excellent and I'm really enjoying it. She is absolutely peerless. Highly recommend.
