As someone who grew up as an underrepresented minority and wanted to be in a STEM field, I know how important it is to see people who look like you accomplishing things. Women in Science provides this in a really awesome way through the curation of the subjects and some wonderful illustrations. I was a big fan of this and would give it to my nieces.
Note: I had to go to a bookstore and read this since Blogging for Books hasn’t replied to my emails about the book being lost.
