"Woman in Science" by H. J. Mozans is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work explores the contributions of women to the scientific field throughout history while highlighting the obstacles they faced in achieving intellectual recognition. Through an examination of women's roles in various scientific realms, the author aims to illuminate the often-overlooked achievements of women in science. The opening of the volume outlines the long struggles women have faced in the pursuit of knowledge, particularly in ancient Greece and Rome, where societal norms largely restricted their access to education and intellectual pursuits. Mozans reflects on the cultural contributions of women such as Aspasia and Sappho, who, despite the limitations of their eras, made significant strides in the intellectual domain. The narrative sets the stage for a comprehensive review of women's scientific accomplishments, showcasing their resilience and the gradual transformation of their status in society over the centuries.
