Emily WinterburnRezensionen

An interesting look at the scientific work of Caroline Herschel, an 18th century female astronomer. Winterburn makes a good argument that despite Herschel not having the same advantages and opportunities as her male counterparts, she nonetheless became an accepted and respected member of the scientific community.

I do have two complaints about Winterburn's writing:
1. She repeats herself. A lot.
2. She jumps back and forth in time so it can be a little hard to know what happened when.

To sum up, a flawed but rewarding read.½

Didn't take.
