The Girls of Atomic City: The Untold Story of the Women Who Helped Win World War II, by Denise Kiernan, looks to be the same sort of thing as Hidden Figures (see previous post upthread). It has dropped to $2.99 as a US Kindle Daily Deal. I quite enjoyed Hidden Figures, and have had this on my watch-for list for a little while, so am happy to see it on sale.

NOT FOR BEGINNERS, free
The Vegetative Key to the British Flora: A new approach to naming British vascular plants based on vegetative characters by John Poland A new HYPERLINKED version of the Vegetative Key to the British Flora for rapid identification. Simply click on any Division or Group letter code to be taken speedily through the Key. This enables the book to be carried around in your mobile phone or other electronic device. NB Hyperlinks are not visible on the 'Look Inside' or on samples but are fully functional on any electronic device with the Kindle app (including mobile phones, iPads, etc). This key enables the user to easily identify any native or alien plant without flowers or fruit, with nothing more than a hand lens. The idea has been for any diligent novice to ID a plant within three turns of a page, often identified correctly in under 30 seconds (due to the simple polychotomous keys). The key will be invaluable to all professional and amateur botanists, ecological consultants, students and naturalists. ==================== Tablet, Phone or PC. Print Replica, so a phone or tablet with a small screen may be unsatisfactory. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K5TTQBY/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01K5TTQBY/ https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01K5TTQBY/ |
