5.0 out of 5 stars
No limit to women's success in math, November 18, 2006
This review is from: Women Becoming Mathematicians: Creating a Professional Identity in Post-World War II America (Hardcover)
The reason I ordered this book was because my mother's cousin, Kenneth Wolfson, is mentioned in it several times. His support of his female students is well known and remembered by all who knew him. The book itself encourages me to pursue my own degree in mathematics. I owe my future career to my cousin and all of the women in this book. Thank you for being strong and proving to the academic world that women have a place in mathematics.

a good book, November 8, 2000
This review is from: Women Becoming Mathematicians: Creating a Professional Identity in Post-World War II America (Hardcover)
I first saw this book in the UT Math Library. I sat down and didn't stop reading it for 45 minutes (too bad I had class). It's really interesting and a quick read.
