Title: Her Space, Her Time: How Trailblazing Women Scientists Decoded the Hidden Universe Author: Shohini Ghose Narrator: Asha Vijayasingham Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 32 minutes Release date: September 17, 2024 Genres: Women Publisher's Summary: Women physicists and astronomers from around the world have transformed science and society, but the critical roles they played in their fields are not always well-sung. Her Space, Her Time, authored by award-winning quantum physicist Shohini Ghose, brings together the stories of these remarkable women to celebrate their indelible scientific contributions. In each chapter, Ghose explores a scientific topic and explains how the women featured revolutionized that area of physics and astronomy. In doing so, she also addresses particular aspects of women's experiences in physics and astronomy: in the chapter on time, for instance, we learn of Henrietta Leavitt and Margaret Burbidge, who helped discover the big bang and the cosmic calendar; in the chapter on space exploration, we learn of Anigaduwagi (Cherokee) aerospace scientist Mary Golda Ross, who helped make the Moon landings possible; and in the chapter on subatomic particles, we learn of Marietta Blau, Hertha Wambacher, and Bibha Chowdhuri, who contributed to the discovery of the building blocks of the universe. Her Space, Her Time is a story of scientific innovation, inspirational leadership, and overcoming invisibility that will leave a lasting impression on any listener curious about the rule-breakers and trendsetters who illuminated our understanding of the universe.
