<p><strong>The real story of science isn't a triumphant breakthrough. It's messy, mysterious, and deeply human.</strong></p><p>In <em>Lost in Curiosity</em>, award-winning journalist Roberta Kwok pulls back the curtain on what scientific discovery actually looks like... Not a Eureka moment, but a fraught, often chaotic pursuit of truth.</p><p>Chronicling researchers' struggles and hopes in the field and lab, Kwok documents it all: fending off relentless snowfall on a remote Greenland glacier, desperately searching for an elusive frog in the rainforests of Borneo, and scrambling to capture fleeting signals of a faraway moon outside our solar system. These are the untold stories of devoted young scientists and restless minds who are chasing nature's riddles, without knowing what they'll uncover.</p><p>Through vivid reporting and moments of unexpected emotion, Kwok reveals the inner lives of researchers who care profoundly about understanding our world and saving what's left of it. From enigmatic fossils and mind-bending physics to the puzzling behavior of wild animals, <em>Lost in Curiosity</em> is a journey through the questions that keep scientists up at night--and the sometimes strange, always illuminating paths they take to answer them.</p>
