      abstract = {When Goodall first presented her discoveries about  chimpanzees at a scientific conference, she was ridiculed  by the chairman. She was too young, too blond, too pretty  to be a serious scientist, and worse yet, she had virtually  no formal scientific training. She had been a secretarial  school graduate whom Leakey had sent out to study chimps  only when he couldn't find anyone better qualified. And he  couldn't tell her what to do in the field--nobody  could--because no one before had made such an intensive and  long-term study. Biographer Peterson shows how remarkable  Goodall's accomplishments were, detailing not only how she  revolutionized the study of primates, our closest  relatives, but how she helped set radically new standards  and a new intellectual style in the study of animal  behavior. And he reveals the very private quest that led to  another sharp turn in her life, from scientist to  activist.--From publisher description.},
