Excerpt:
This site has biographies of women who contributed to our culture in many different ways. There are writers, educators, scientists, heads of state, politicians, civil rights crusaders, artists, entertainers, and others. Some were alive hundreds of years ago and some are living today. We've heard of some of them, while many more have been ignored by history book writers. I'd like to acknowledge as many as I can.
Annotation:
This text only, one-page site lists links to Web materials on prominent women in the history of physics and its associated fields. At the top of the page are a few recommended books on the subject, and at the bottom is a link to a more useful site on the history of women in physics from the University of California, Los Angeles (from 1898-1998). In between is a list of about 15 women (a few born in the nineteenth century) and Web sites that contain biographical information about them. There are no images or biographical material on this site, just links.
