Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Careers in Science
Thomas A. Easton · 1996
48/100
👎 Skip It
Thomas Easton covers a wide range of science careers with practical structure and the format is useful for self-assessment — but a 1996 career guide carries a steep credibility problem in 2026, when salary figures, required credentials, and entire career categories have shifted dramatically. Readers are better served by current online resources or a more recent edition of this series.
