Gr 4-6-Like other biographers of this esteemed medical researcher, much of the authors' task is to describe the horror of poliomyelitis and the effects of itsepidemics to an audience that will have little knowledge of the disease itself thanks in large part to Salk's work. In this case, the biography includes so much information about the disease, microbiology, and immunology that the first five or so pages of text (out of about 35) are so dense in content that younger readers may have trouble finding the book's subject. The last third of the text holds tighter focus on Salk including his professional disagreement with Albert Sabin and his reputation as a prickly character.
This book is about people who are vitally aware of their own need to learn, and to apply that learning to the process of facilitating other people’s learning. It is a book about change, not in the sense that change is an isolated singularity, or a string of isolated singularities, that might suddenly enter the stream of consciousness; but of change being the nature of that stream of consciousness. As we live we are in a continuing process of transformation, engaging in a form of thinking that is transformatory, and that transforms our social practices.
