Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Blinded by the restrictions that denied women entry to historically male-dominated fields, this book series explores the women who transcended glass ceilings and opened doors for future women to continue challenging gender equality issues and gender roles in society.
