"Hedy Lamarr: Reimagining Radio" by Megan Borgert-Spaniol explores the extraordinary life of actress and inventor Hedy Lamarr. Though she was renowned for her beauty and Hollywood fame, Lamarr's genius extended far beyond the silver screen. This book delves into her groundbreaking work in technology, particularly her invention of frequency hopping, a concept that laid the foundation for modern wireless communication. Through engaging prose and vivid illustrations, readers learn about Lamarr's innovative spirit and her contributions to the fields of science and engineering, challenging the stereotypes of women in her time and inspiring future generations of inventors and creators.
