From her new book, an excerpt of in the Amazon review (Publishers Weekly):
Many visitors to the world-famous Exploratorium in San Francisco
probably know little about its founder, Frank Oppenheimer (1912–1985).
... but the book's true subject is his work at the Exploratorium and his
philosophy, not just of science education but of life.
