Throughout history, women have been told that science isnt for them. Theyve been told that theyre not smart enough, or that their brains just arent able to handle it. In this book, Chelsea Clinton introduces readers to women scientists who didnt listen to those who told them No and who used their smarts, their skills and their persistence to discover, invent, create and explain. She Persisted in Science is for everyone whos ever had questions about the world around them or the way things work, and who wont give up until they find their answers. With engaging artwork by Alexandra Boiger accompanying the inspiring text, this is a book that shows readers that everyone has the potential to make a difference, and that women in science change our world.
