Headstrong: 52 Women Who Changed Science-And the World by Rachel Swaby
3.0
Fine as an introduction to names I'd not heard of, and for a brief overview of their accomplishments, but the writing was at times rather slight and lazy. While I had never heard of many of these women, the majority I found had won Nobel prizes or achieved recognition during their lifetime, even if it took far, far longer than their male counterparts.
Best used as a quick reference, or to scout out people to read about in more depth.
