The author of many science books for young people, among them Atoms Today and Tomorrow (1959, p. 873 J-267) and Plants Today and Tomorrow (1960, p. 50 J-18), now directs her audience's attention to molecules in action. Their activity, structure and special characteristics are described as they exist in solids, liquids and gases. Experiments in super-cold indicate their value to surgery.
