PositiveThe Boston GlobeIn Eyes on the Street, a comprehensive biography by former MIT professor Robert Kanigel, a portrait emerges of an independent thinker and a caring mother, wife, and friend as well as a courageous if reluctant heroine who stepped into an arena dominated by men ... Being a protester at the barricades is also where a lot of the colorful action is; it’s a tougher challenge to write about a writer, much less a writer with occasional writer’s block. The stretch is sometimes evident in Kanigel’s abundant deployment of italics to make a point ... All that drove this change-maker may yet be more fully understood, but Eyes on the Street is a welcome addition to the literature.
