{"product_id":"beyond-curie-scott-calvin-9781643278209","title":"Beyond Curie: Four Women in Physics and Their Remarkable Discoveries, 1903 to 1963","description":"In the 116 year history of the Nobel Prize in Physics, only two women have won the award; Marie Curie (1903) and Maria Mayer (1963). During the 60 years between those awards, several women did work of similar calibre. This book focuses on those women, providing biographies for each that discuss both how they made their discoveries and the gender-specific reception of those discoveries. It also discusses the Nobel process and how society and the scientific community's treatment of them were influenced by their gender.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Scott Calvin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1643278207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643278209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Iop Concise Physics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/31\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Scott Calvin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43981642793215,"sku":"9781643278209","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1ea76f88-1dda-4576-a346-4bda1b40df13.jpg?v=1683256725","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-curie-scott-calvin-9781643278209","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
