It’s a scientific fact: Women rock!
A charmingly illustrated and educational book, New York Times best
seller Women in Science highlights the contributions of fifty
notable women to the fields of science, technology, engineering, and
mathematics (STEM) from the ancient to the modern world. Full of
striking, singular art, this fascinating collection also contains
infographics about relevant topics such as lab equipment, rates of
women currently working in STEM fields, and an illustrated scientific
glossary. The trailblazing women profiled include well-known figures
like primatologist Jane Goodall, as well as lesser-known pioneers
such as Katherine Johnson, the African-American physicist and
mathematician who calculated the trajectory of the 1969 Apollo 11
mission to the moon.
Women in Science
celebrates the achievements of the intrepid women who have paved the
way for the next generation of female engineers, biologists,
mathematicians, doctors, astronauts, physicists, and more!
