Ahead of Their Time A Biographical Dictionary of Risk-Taking Women

An appendix offers short vignettes about women on whom little information is available, but whose accomplishments are significant particularly when they may have played a part in the contributions of other women cited here. This biographical dictionary will be a valuable research tool for students looking for information on a specific person, from a particular profession, time period or country of origin. For easy reference, alphabetized entries identify the subjects' country of origin and field of pursuit, and appendices list the names by these categories. Each biographical entry offers further suggested readings on the subject, and a more inclusive bibliography follows.Duncan, Joyce is the author of 'Ahead of Their Time A Biographical Dictionary of Risk-Taking Women' with ISBN 9780313316609 and ISBN 0313316600.
