About

We know women are as good as men-so why haven't we heard of more women? Allison Tyra brings together more than 600 stories, encompassing thousands of women from throughout history, around the world, and across different fields, combined with statistics, research, and other data to answer this fundamental question and challenge ingrained misconceptions about women and their work.
