Women can change the world. They have already done so in the past,
they continue to do it today, and they will always do it in the
future, following the example of extraordinary female figures that
were capable of challenging conventions and changing history. This
book relates the exciting lives of fifty of yesterday and today’s
outstanding women whose achievements left a deep mark on society.
It tells about queens and artists, politicians and fashion
designers, actresses and scientists, explorers and entrepreneurs,
sportswomen and ordinary women who, courageously and creatively,
have given their lives meaning. They pursued their ambitions and
showed strongly and passionately that anyone can achieve their
dreams, even those that the world considers inappropriate or
impossible for a woman. Their lives are often marked by successes
and triumphs, but also by tragedies and ordeals, as thrilling and
moving as the plots of great novels. Among the many biographies,
the book presents the figures of Maria Montessori, Emmeline
Pankhurst, Amelia Earhart, Coco Chanel, Simone de Beauvoir, Estée
Lauder, Rosa Parks, Eva Perón, Joséphine Baker, Jane Goodall,
Mary Quant, Zaha Hadid, Malala Yousafzai, and many others.
