Have any of you guys seen this documentary?
I just finished watching it and its amazing. Follows the history of an American toxicologist pioneer. Pure passion for the science, very motivational.

Was this something you saw on TV? I have the book and thought it was a fun read. ;)

Ah, yes, great documentary. I saw it last year in AP chemistry. (watched it after the AP test was over and we had nothing to do)
I plan on reading the book at some point. I always find these sort of things to be very enjoyable.

Yeah I just stumbled across it on netflix. And didn't know there was a book I'll have to check it out.
