Women in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World

My daughter liked it!

Women in Science is neatly and simply written and gloriously illustrated by Rachel Ignotofsky. This book is short- can be read in 1, 2 or 3 days but it is also the kind that will make you want to come back to it again and again! Wonderful and informative.

This great book that talks about incredible women around the world. It is an inspiration to everyone who loves to read about the groundbreaking efforts of women. I am in love with the illustrations and the stories behind.

Pros: The book on a whole is quite nicely illustrated, easy to understand. Moreover, for each scientist, there were bits and pieces of useful information with images, which is the USP of the book. The other USPs include the statistical data about women and men in STEM, the gender gap, etc., which is quite eye-opening and informative. Cons: Even great authors need great editors. I have found a few glaring errors in the book. For example : "suffragist" was written as "suggragist"; "male colleagues" was written as "male colleges" Since many young kids will be reading this, there maybe wrong interpretation and confusion.

Catchy book, hardbound with glossy pages and beautiful illustrations. Any child would be happy to have this in their collection. Glad I bought it.

Pros: Beautiful illustrations and design Looks and feels premium. Kids who are not so much into reading will also love this Though the book focuses on STEM it will appeal to all. Also you have a glossary at the back of book to help understand scientific terms Good coverage of women across fields and geographies This book is perfect in a perfectly imperfect way.

This book is fantastic. The artwork and design are beautiful and the content is so accessible. I've learned so much about these female pioneers in science and medicine. My daughter and I have been reading about a few of these women every day and then we have a conversation about their accomplishments. Such an inspirational book.

I bought this as a gift for my cousins and I think its one of the best things I gave them. It is so important to see role models in our lives to get inspired and this book provides just that. Plus I love the minimalistic text with timeline approach - its makes it fun and easy to grasp.

I absolutely love it. The authors did her research and had successfully synthesized it to make it interesting to everyone and very pleasing to the eye. Great work ! Every girl should have it.

Libro de tamaño mediano y tapas duras. Cuenta con 127 páginas divididas de la siguiente forma: Hola pequeña introducción, 50 historias de mujeres científicas, hojas informativas cómo la línea del tiempo, herramientas de laboratorio, estadísticas, etc. Al final cuenta con una conclusión, una página con más científicas a modo de resumen, un glosario con distintos términos, las fuentes en las que se basan el libro, una página del autor, agradecimientos, y un índice. Me gusta la composición por qué es un libro científico, con todos los elementos que se necesitan. El diseño del libro no es convencional. Es un libro oscuro en su mayor parte, En una hoja aparece la científica a color, y en la siguiente aparece la descripción de su vida y su descubrimiento escrito en el mismo tono. Cada científica ocupa 2 páginas. El nivel de inglés no es del todo complicado, aunque debéis de tener en cuenta que dependiendo de la científica se citan conceptos específicos de la materia. En resumen un libro con muchos datos y mucha información interesante, para aprender cosas nuevas e interiorizar que la ciencia no solo es de hombres! Espero que os ayude nuestra experiencia!

Gift for my friends kid who loves STEM, was a big hit and the modern artwork was very enticing.
