52 stubborn women. Scientists who changed the world

This is a book about women, whose names are unfairly little known solely due to their gender. Meanwhile, their scientific discoveries and research in the fields of medicine, biochemistry, biology, physiology, and archaeology have improved life on the planet, allowed... us to conquer deadly diseases, and expanded our knowledge of the world. Each of the heroines has gone through a unique path, and each faced societal rejection. They were overlooked and ignored, their achievements were attributed to men, and if that was not possible, their status as wives and mothers was emphasized first, while their professional merits were presented as a bonus. But they continued to work against all odds and emerged from this struggle as winners.
