"In this full-color, nonfiction resource, profiles of twenty-five diverse individuals share how each person got interested in their field, how they studied or trained for it, how others typically study or train for it, and their experience in their career. Informative sidebars share spin-off jobs, fun facts, pro tips about how readers can try out the field, and spotlight features about children who are doing just that. The book includes a table of contents, a glossary, an index, an interactive quiz, and reference pages about different types of education."--
