An award-winning columnist for Discover magazine takes a light look at hard science. If science had been this funny in school, maybe you would have listened. Part stand-up comic, part gonzo journalist, Discover magazine’s Judith Stone can sniff out strange science at five paces. This offbeat collection of her trenchant, witty essays explodes the boundaries of science, with outrageous insights and surprising factual information that will keep you laughing and learning. Praise for Light Elements “You need this book, because it contains Amazing Science Facts, such as how the entire world could be destroyed by cows. Also there’s a fascinating chapter on getting yourself mummified. This would be after your death, of course. Which could be any day now, what with these cows. You definitely need this book.”—Dave Barry “Ms. Stone is a boon to those who stopped listening after fourth-grade science. She is witty and knowledgeable. I can’t believe it’s actually fun.”—Wendy Wasserstein “It’s full of interesting information and it’s really funny. If that’s not what you’re looking for, you’re not looking for a book. Why not try a good appliance store?”—Penn &amp; Teller

During the worst years of official racism in South Africa, the story of one young girl gripped the nation and came to symbolize the injustice, corruption, and arbitrary nature of apartheid. Born in 1955 to a pro-apartheid Afrikaner couple, Sandra Laing was officially registered and raised as a white child. But when she was sent to a boarding school for whites, she was mercilessly persecuted because of her dark skin and frizzy hair. Her parents attributed Sandra's appearance to an interracial union far back in history; they swore Sandra was their child. Their neighbors, however, thought Mrs. Laing had committed adultery with a black man. The family was shunned. And when Sandra was ten, she was removed from school by the police and reclassified as "coloured."
As a teenager, Sandra eloped with a black man, and her parents disowned her. The young woman, who had only known the privileged world of the whites, chose to begin again in a poor, rural, all-black township, where life was a desperate, day-to-day struggle against poverty, illness, and a legal system designed to enslave.
In this remarkable narrative, veteran journalist and author Judith Stone takes us on her own eye-opening journey as she and Sandra explore the mysteries of Sandra's past and piece together the fractured life of one of apartheid's many victims. As the devastating circumstances of Sandra's life are revealed, Stone comes to understand and admire her for the flawed -- yet enduring -- survivor she is.
