"A lo largo de la historia, a las mujeres les han dicho que la ciencia no es para ellas porque no son suficientemente inteligentes, o porque sus cerebros simplemente no son capaces de ese tipo de estudio. En este libro, Chelsea Clinton nos presenta a varias mujeres científicas que no prestaron atención a los que les dijeron que no y optaron por utilizar su ingenio, sus hablidades y su persistencia para descubrir, inventar, crear y explicar."--
