Women of Science – Righting the Record

Autor Gabriele Kass–simon, Patricia Farnes M.d.
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 mar 1990
Women of Science focuses on accomplishments of women in astronomy, archaeology, biology, chemistry, crystallography, engineering, geology, mathematics, medicine, and physics. It confirms what other recent work has shown: past women scientists worked outside of "traditional" academic teaching and research positions and, thus, are frequently invisible in the professional scientific literature.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

'For too many years, and for too many reasons, the capabilities of women have been repressed and ignored. Women of Science presents ample evidence of the important scientific contributions made by women. Yet this book is more than a reference--it is delightful and inspiring reading' --Association for Women in Science Magazine
