Transient and Strange: Notes on the Science of Life is Nell Greenfieldboyce's first book.

NPR Science Correspondent Nell Greenfieldboyce has been a reporter for almost 30 years and in that time she’s reported on everything from the space shuttle to gene therapy to pet cloning.

Now she’s written her first book titled “Transient and Strange.” It’s a heartfelt collection of essays about some very personal stories.

She sat down with our Morning Edition Host George Prentice to talk about the book.
