\nBook Summary:
\nChemist Elizab eth Zott is not your average woman. In fact\, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it &rsquo\;s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Insti tute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Ev ans\; the lonely\, brilliant\, Nobel&ndash\;prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with&mdash\;of all things&mdash\;her mind. True chemistr y results.
\nBut like science\, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother\, but the reluctant star of America&rsquo\;s most beloved cooking show \ ;Supper at Six. Elizabeth&rsquo\;s unusual approach to cooking (&ldquo\;co mbine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride&rdquo\;) proves revolutionary. But as her following grows\, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out\, Elizabeth Zott isn&rsquo\;t just teaching women to cook. She&rsquo\;s daring them to change the status quo.
\nLaugh- out-loud funny\, shrewdly observant\, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters\, \;Lessons in Chemistry \;is as original an d vibrant as its protagonist.
