In a perfect blend of science and memoir, Nell Greenfieldboyce imbues objects of study--meteorites, tornadoes, black holes, fleas--with emotional beauty. Transient and Strange is a deeply relatable account of the pleasures and the terrors of being a woman, being a mother, and being deeply curious about the universe.--Emma Marris, author of Wild Souls
