Description
Stolen Science: Thirteen Untold Stories of Scientists and Inventors Almost Written Out of History by Ella Schwartz. For centuries, groundbreaking discoveries in science have been attributed to those with more power, wealth, and prestige. However, the contributions of women, people from underrepresented communities, and immigrants who overcame social obstacles to make remarkable findings have often gone unrecognised. This book sets the record straight, shedding light on the nearly forgotten inventors and scientists whose work has shaped our world today. From the telephone to DNA decoding, and from the discovery of yellow fever's cause, many scientific breakthroughs have been attributed to more prominent figures. Stolen Science brings these unsung heroes into the spotlight, revealing their remarkable stories and achievements. With 13 compelling tales, this book celebrates the often-overlooked pioneers who paved the way for our modern understanding of science. Hardcover, 128 pages.
