Science educators will enjoy reading the 20+ essays that provide many no-nonsense teaching tips and insights about science education. They represent Druger's personal reflections, based upon his experience in teaching more than 40,000 students during his career. Teachers will be moved and motivated after reading this inspirational book. 'Meeting former students everywhere I go; receiving letters and articles from former students; seeing the 'light bulbs' turned on in the minds of my students; sensing the excitement of a thoughtful insight; hearing critical questions being asked, and sometimes hearing creative answers; experiencing the good humor of youth and laughing with students; sharing a quest to live the good life to its fullest-that's what teaching is all about. Would I choose this career if I had the choice to make over again? You bet!'-Marvin Druger The American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America are prominent international scientific societies headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin.
