Publisher's Summary

The New York Times best seller Women in Science highlights the contributions of 50 notable women to the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), from the ancient to the modern world. This fascinating collection contains information about relevant topics, such as lab equipment and rates of women currently working in STEM fields. 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!

Very informative

I loved listening to this book, it was informative and inspiring. The narrator was excellent. She had little vocal variety but it was clear she admired the women she was was talking about.
The time intervals of the chapters were out of sync with content and a couple of chapter titles were mixed up. Who ever time linked the chapters can do better. I
would recommend fixing it. But the narration and the content were excellent.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
