Why are there so few prominent female physicists?
來源：香港大書城megBookStore,http://www.megbook.com.hk Traditionally women have faced barriers in higher education,
denying them access to higher learning and scientific laboratories.
Today many of these barriers have been breached, but the female
pioneers who overcame discrimination and became major players in
their fields remain largely in the shadows. Their names deserve to
be known and the importance of their work, achievements and
contributions to science warrant recognition. Originally published
in 2006, Out of the Shadows provides an accurate and authoritative
description of the women who made original and important
contributions to physics in the twentieth century, documenting
their major discoveries and putting their work into its historical
context. Each chapter concentrates on a different woman, and is
written by a physicist with considerable experience in their field.
The book is an ideal reference for anyone with an interest in
science and social history.
