Hey everyone!
I hope you’re all doing well! I’ve been diving into women in STEM book lately and am completely captivated by the inspiring stories of women who’ve made incredible strides in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. There’s something uniquely motivating about learning from the journeys of women who have defied expectations and paved the way for future generations in male-dominated fields.

I’m curious if any of you have recommendations for women in STEM books that are particularly inspirational? I’m looking for stories that highlight resilience, breakthrough moments, and overcoming adversity. Whether it’s a biography, a memoir, or a compelling narrative about a woman’s path in the world of STEM, I’d love to hear what has left a lasting impact on you.

For example, Radium Girls by Kate Moore is an eye-opening account of women working with radium in the early 20th century, and how they fought for justice despite overwhelming odds. Another book that’s been highly recommended is Hidden Figures by Margot Lee Shetterly, which sheds light on the African-American women mathematicians at NASA who were key to the success of the space race.

Do you have a women in STEM book that deeply resonated with you or inspired you in any way? I’d love to hear about it!
Looking forward to your suggestions and any other must-read books you think should be on my list!
