Forces of nature : the women who changed science / Anna Reser & Leila McNeill. by Reser, Anna, author. London : Frances Lincoln, 2021. Subjects Women scientists -- Biography.   Scientists -- Biography.   Women in science. ISBN:  9780711248977 (hardcover) : 0711248974 (hardcover) Description:  271 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  From the ancient world to the present women have been critical to the progress of science, yet their importance is overlooked, their stories lost, distorted, or actively suppressed. Forces of Nature sets the record straight and charts the fascinating history of women's discoveries in science. In the ancient and medieval world, women served as royal physicians and nurses, taught mathematics, studied the stars, and practiced midwifery. As natural philosophers, physicists, anatomists, and botanists, they were central to the great intellectual flourishing of the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment. More recently women have been crucially involved in the Manhattan Project, pioneering space missions and much more. Despite their record of illustrious achievements, even today very few women win Nobel Prizes in science.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 509.252 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 509.252 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 509.252 Reser Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 509.252 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 509.252 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 509.252 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 509.252 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList
