Mary Ellen Hannibal: Citizen Scientist

Digging deeply, Mary Ellen Hannibal traces today's tech-enabled citizen science movement to its roots: the centuries-long tradition of amateur observation by writers and naturalists. Combining original reporting, meticulous research, and memoir in impassioned prose, Citizen Scientist, is a literary event, a blueprint for action, and the story of how one woman rescued herself from an odyssey of loss - with a new kind of science.
