Cool in appraisal, balanced in argument and, in my book, an essential read
Graeme Fife, BBC History Magazine
This illustrates different ways in which women have contributed powerfully to the growth of science...[with] fluent style and a determined attempt to make the history of science readily understood as a social construct
Times Higher Education Supplement
Excellent... Fascinating in its details, Pandora's Breeches is also groundbreaking in the way it reframes the history of science
