This brand-new series highlights some of the major contributions
women have made in the world of science. Did you know that the
technology behind cell phones was based on an idea developed during
World War II by the Hollywood star Heddy Lamar to prevent the enemy
intercepting radio messages? The computer and other electronic
devices have changed life dramatically over the last 70 years--and
many of the key breakthroughs in technology were made by women.
These women's achievements were often highly specialized and have
been widely overlooked. This book tells their stories and describes
their vital contributions.
