Content introduction:
The challenge of outstanding female scientists often comes not only from science, but also from gender.
Did you know that the first computer program in history was designed by women? Did you know that it is women who find that sex is determined by X and Y chromosomes? Do you know that women also win Nobel medals in two different fields? Throughout history, many women at all costs in order to study science, and many great and important women have not been recognized as they deserve. When we think of female scientists, we shouldnt just think of Mrs. Curie; When it comes to physics, we should not only say Einstein, but also know the genius mathematician Amy nott; When talking about the progress of science and technology, dont forget that in addition to Steve jabbers and Bill Gates, we should remember the modern programmer grace hope... This book tells the story of 50 outstanding women among these female scientists, some of whom lived in ancient Greece, some were born in modern times, but faced with "no", They all said, "see if you can stop me."
"Dont let others discourage you or tell you you cant do it. Many people used to tell me that women shouldnt study chemistry. I really dont see a reason why women shouldnt study chemistry." Gertrude Elian (winner of the 1988 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine)
"If the current social situation does not allow women to develop freely, we must transform the society." Elizabeth Blackwell (a woman with a medical degree in the United States)
