Informazioni su questo libro

This book retraces the story of American science through the women whose work was erased, minimized, or credited to male colleagues until the data itself became impossible to ignore. It asks how laboratories, journals, and prize committees turned brilliant women into footnotes, and what happens when the very evidence of their discoveries forces a reluctant canon to rewrite itself. The narrative focuses on three overlapping mechanisms: the institutional "camouflage" that hid women's contributions under anonymity, joint‑authorship norms, and domestic‑labor assumptions; the delayed recognition of figures such as Rosalind Franklin, Jocelyn Bell Burnell, and Chien‑Shiung Wu, whose breakthroughs were only fully acknowledged once male peers could no longer contain or dismiss the evidence; and the ongoing struggle to embed these women into textbooks, monuments, and teaching materials that once excluded them. Drawing on archival letters, marginal notes in lab books, and recent corrective biographies, the book shows how the Matilda effect—the systematic downgrading of women's scientific credit—shaped not only individual lives but entire fields.
