Book: When I Fell From the Sky...

Book: When I Fell From the Sky...  By Juliane (Koepcke) Diller.  This is the book I mentioned a week or so ago, about the young girl who survived falling 10,000 feet out of an airplane into the Peruvian jungle.  I just finished it last night.  I thoroughly enjoyed this book.  It turns out to be much more than the story of her fall and subsequent survival in the jungle – it's also a story of overcoming the misadventure, of a passion for science, and of the successful establishment of a nature preserve just a few miles from where she fell in 1971.  Highly recommended for anyone interested in science and inspiring human experience...
