Joan Lorch Staple’s Second Volume Published - Change and Challenge. My Life After Thirty is the sequel of Chance and Choice, My First Thirty Years (2007). It describes the birth of Joan and Peter’s two sons in the 1950s and the change from her life as a London research biologist to motherhood in rural England. After emigrating to Birmingham, AL, Joan and Peter joined the Unitarian Church, which helped them face the challenge of raising their sons in a segregated society. In 1963 the Staples moved to Buffalo, NY, where Joan resumed her research, which involved the “creation” of living amoebas, as well as witnessing the evolution of a new amoeba strain. Coping with teenagers in the Sixties and starting her teaching career at Canisius College complete the story. You can get this book from www.lulu.com
