Engineers and Women Changed the World: A Memoir (B&W) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798360193210)

THIS IS THE BLACK & WHITE EDITION. A FULL COLOR EDITION IS ALSO AVAILABLE.

Patience Purdy was born and grew up in Australia, the great-granddaughter of the famous pioneer, George Fairbairn.

After her brother Charles was tragically killed during the Second World War, her entire life was changed, and she travelled to England to study at Cambridge University as an engineer.

Having gained her degree, she stayed in England, started a family and moved to the North East, living an unusual, interesting and, at times, challenging life, with a great involvement in technology and engineering.

This memoir tells the story of her ninety years of life so far, chronicling the changes that have taken place throughout society across that time, both technological and otherwise.
