How the glow of radium lit a path for women in science

"The Elements of Marie Curie" book cover

In her new book, The Elements of Marie Curie, one of the most celebrated science writers of our time, Dava Sobel, celebrates the remarkable work of Marie Curie.

The biography delves deep into the most famous woman in science, who won two Nobel prizes (in different disciplines) and tells the many untold stories of other women in science who were trained by and worked alongside Madame Curie.
