Product Description
From Virginia Apgar to Barbara McClintock, from Chien-Shiung Wu to Sophie Kowalevski, to Hedy Lamarr… 52 life stories flowing from Rachel Swaby’s entertaining pen, 52 scientists who changed science and the world, 52 women who clung to science despite the injustices and discrimination they faced…
Swaby's rebels unravel the structure of DNA, rewrite the laws of nature or establish a brand new scientific discipline; while being mocked, ignored, and insulted. Whatever happens, these women from different eras and geographies never give up on believing in science, not in the opinions of others. These are rebellious women!
