The first book of its kind to provide a full and comprehensive historical grounding of the contemporary issues of gender and women in science.
Women in Science includes a detailed survey of the history behind the popular subject and engages the reader with a theoretical and informed understanding with significant issues like science and race, gender and technology and masculinity.
It moves beyond the historical work on women and science by avoiding focusing on individual women scientists.
Ruth Watts is Professor of History of Education at the University of
Birmingham. Her research interests are in the history of education and
gender and publications include Gender, Power and the Unitarians in
England, 1760-1860.
