WOMEN OF GENIUS IN SCIENCE - LARS JAEGER KARTON...

Although women participated in shaping scientific thinking from the outset  they very rarely
became visible. This imbalance continues today  although there are currently more female
scientists than ever before. Lars Jaeger spans an arc from antiquity to the present day and
portrays the lives and work of the most important female scientists and mathematicians in
essay-like introductions. From Hypatia of Alexandria to Emmy Noether and Lisa Randall  they
have all achieved great things  decisively advanced science and yet often could not step out of
the shadow of their male colleagues. In addition to the exciting portraits of the individual
women scientists  the book also sheds light on gender relations in science and their
agonisingly slow evolution in favour of women.
