From the technology used in cell phones to drugs developed to save cancer patients, women have been behind a wide range of incredible inventions. At times when the intelligence and public role of women were questioned, they also had to invent new ways of succeeding in a man's world. With hard work and determination, the women profiled in this book triumphed against long odds to win Nobel Prizes, public acclaim, and a permanent place in the history books. This book will inspire readers to make their own great discoveries and change the world for the better.
