Each has had her own unique personal struggles that make her climb to scientific prominence all the more fascinating." "This book is a must-have resource for anyone interested in women's studies and the history of science. It contains a general bibliography; a visual chronology; four subject indexes that list women by field of study, country of birth, country of major scientific activity, and decade of birth; a comprehensive index; and 50 photographs depicting these remarkable women."--Jacket.
