Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
4.0
The unique blend of history, feminism, and science.
Lessons in Chemistry takes readers on an inspiring journey through the life of Elizabeth Zott, a self-assured Chemist who is working amidst an all-male team at the Hastings Research Institute in the early 50s.
As a chemist working in a male-dominated environment, Elizabeth's struggles and triumphs resonate deeply with any woman in STEM. One of the best things about Elizabeth was her unwavering determination to challenge the societal norms of her time.
The book tackled sensitive topics with grace, and I appreciated how it shed light on the challenges women faced during that era. Despite the heartbreak woven into the narrative, the overall uplifting tone of the writer will make you feel empowered and hopeful.
Elizabeth Zott's story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the importance of staying true to oneself, regardless of the odds. I would highly recommend this book to anyone seeking inspiration and a heartwarming journey of empowerment.
