Description   Biographical essays on 23 women who worked in atomic science during the first two decades of the 20th century, including Marie Curie, Lise Meitner, Irčne Joliot-Curie, and a host of lesser-known women scientists whose life stories have never been told before. "A well-researched, scholarly work that will make a significant contribution to both the history of science and the role of women in 20th-century society. It provides a fascinating picture of the difficulties and obstacles faced by women who wished to pursue a career in science."--Montague Cohen, McGill University and Rutherford Museum
