Some time ago I read a very interesting book. |
| It was exciting for me to read of the accomplishments of women over the centuries who overcame sometimes extremely difficult circumstances, to study and become mathematicians. | ![]() Emilie du Châtelet(1706-1749) |
![]() Maria Gaetana Agnesi (1718-1799) |
I was able to do a little research in the time available to me and I found that there has been a greater study made on the very women I was going to present to you. |
The women are:
|
![]() Sophie Germain (1776-1831) |
![]() Mary Fairfax Somerville (1780-1872) |
The book that I read was : "Math equals: biographies of women mathematicians and related activities" by Teri Perl. |
