By contextualizing their achievements within the broader social, cultural, and scientific landscapes of their time, this book enables readers to seize the challenges these women confronted and the obstacles they triumphed over. Alongside narrating how they shaped the development of chemistry, including their contributions to the body of chemical literature, it also emphasizes pivotal moments and milestones in the history of women's emancipation. The book's comprehensive and integrative approach, complemented by engaging storytelling, renders it an indispensable resource for students, researchers, and general readers alike. 606 $aChemistry$xHistory 606 $aScience$xHistory 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching 606 $aSex 606 $aHistory of Chemistry 606 $aHistory of Science 606 $aScience Education 606 $aGender Studies 615 0$aChemistry$xHistory. 615 0$aScience$xHistory. 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aSex. 615 14$aHistory of Chemistry. 615 24$aHistory of Science. 615 24$aScience Education. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a540.82 700 $aAndre?$b Joa?o Paulo$00 702 $aMindermann$b Thomas 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910872184803321 996 $aSisters of Prometheus$94378849 997 $aUNINA
