I learned a lot about a lot of scientists that I have never heard of before and it felt like I was actually communicating with the scientists in real life. I liked Rosalind Franklin the most. It interested me because it felt like I travelled through time and experienced a lot of amazing inventions. Lastly, I would recommend it to my friends because it was both informative and fun

When you read this book you feel the feeling of wonder a mysterious feeling no one can describe. And the main character has endless sense to wonder what if she won a noble prize until her guide Barry Marshall confesses has won one!

I wasn't to keen on the book because it had to much information and not enough story. I would have liked it more if it was just an information book and no story.
