5.0 out of 5 stars Superb piece of work., January 26, 2007
This review is from: Women of Science: Righting the Record (Midland Book) (Paperback)
I came across this book while studying for a teaching qualification. I'd already heard about how Lise Meitner and Rosalynd Frankin had been side-lined by history writers, so I thought I'd do a project on the history of women in science. This book is a real eye opener. There are so many areas where women's contributions to science have been ignored or stolen by men that one can get quite agitated reading this book. Buy it, read it, and have your eyes opened. It is not a polemic against "bad men keeping good women down", for those who may be worried about such things. It is, however, an excellent historical-biographical account of the unsung heroes of science
