History

"Woman in Science" by J. A. Zahm is a book written in 1913 under the pen name H. J. Mozans. It chronicles women's contributions to science throughout history, from ancient Greece to modern times. Zahm argues that women's underrepresentation in science stems not from biological limitations but from lack of educational and career opportunities.
