“A short, excellent account of [Leavitt’s] extraordinary life and achievements.”—Simon Singh, New York Times Book Review
Johnson, who is the author of a number of books and contributes science articles to The New York Times, was obviously drawn to Leavitt and her work many years ago, and he has written about it with penetrating intelligence. His book appears in a year when a debate about biases and barriers against women in science has generated enormous public interest, and the argument has spread far beyond the United States. Johnson's book is eloquent evidence in this discussion. He makes clear what Leavitt and her associates accomplished, given a meager opportunity. That says it all. No polemics needed.
