Course Description
Instructors: George deMan and Jill ParksThere have always been women working alone or in concert and consort with men in the sciences: Hapatia, Mme. Curie, Rosalind Franklin, Rachel Carson, Jane Goodall - - some overshadowed by husbands, co-workers or suppressed in the critical coverage. But perspective has often changed and proper recognition finally brought about. The course will be built around books like 50 Famous Women of Science, biographies and autobiographies. Some documentaries and movies will be shown. Some members of OLLI who had scientific careers may make guest appearances.
