It's a well-written history of the contribution women have made to science (or in olde timey speak, "natural philosophy"). Not only is it inspiring to read about the important role that many, many women have played in the history of science, but it also vindicates many who were forgotten or whose ideas were basically stolen by men and passed of as their own. Enjoy! Pamela,
