Playing With Fire: Adventures and Mentors of a Chemical Engineer, (Paperback)

This spirited, insightful memoir chronicles a chemical engineer's struggle to survive in the wilderness of the chemical and pharmaceutical industrial mega-complex. In an uncharted journey - recounted through self-deprecating stories, we encounter mentors who coach, encourage, and reveal the possibilities within. A strategy of actively seeking and having mentors led this engineer to achievements beyond what might have otherwise been possible. The lessons of mentoring and volunteerism resonate in this time of uncertainty and disunity. The experience will enrich and stimulate readers to reflect on how they too can make a difference in the lives of others.
