Overview
Throughout history, women have been told that science isnāt for them. Theyāve been told that theyāre not smart enough, or that their brains just arenāt able to handle it. In this book, Chelsea Clinton introduces readers to women scientists who didnāt listen to those who told them ānoā and who used their smarts, their skills and their persistence to discover, invent, create and explain.
Ā
She Persisted in Science is for everyone whoās ever had questions about the world around them or the way things work, and who wonāt give up until they find their answers.
