Rezensionen / Stimmen
"This volume will provide inspiration to its readers, showing them how women have made substantial contributions, as individuals and as groups, to mathematics research, mathematics education, mathematical culture, and outreach, and inspiring them, in turn, to encourage women and girls to pursue mathematical careers. . The book under review will serve as a welcome and useful sourcebook." (Christopher Hollings, Mathematics Today, Vol. 55 (5), October, 2019)
"The editors have done a good job in selecting and grouping the papers into three strands - there are biographical papers, papers on mathematics education, and beginning the book, with the largest section, thematic papers, on women mathematicians in particular times or places. . I found this book to be inspirational and informative. I think it has a place in every university library." (Sarah Hart, London Mathematical Society Newsletter, newsletter.lms.ac.uk, Issue 483, July, 2019)
"This book is a collection of papers on biographies, histories, studies, cultural discussions, etc. of women mathematicians in the last two centuries. . The book is very interesting and can serve for the promotion of more women in mathematics." (Angela Slavova, zbMATH 1391.01006, 2018)
