She Persisted: 13 American Women Who Changed the World by Chelsea Clinton
4.0
“So, if anyone ever tells you no, of anyone says your voice isn't important or your dreams are too big, remember these women. They persisted and so should you.”
So, this book is about 13 fabulous American Women from different fields who didn't give up. Despite all odds, they've persisted. There were some women of whom I've never heard before. However, I wouldn't mention them all in this review. I would rather other readers to read this book. Now, as a physician, I would like to mention Dr. Virginia Apgar who was an American obstetrical anesthesiologist. She was best known as the inventor of APGAR Score, a way to quickly assess the health of a newborn child immediately after birth. It's a shame that I didn't know her from my med school for I used her method hundreds of time while assessing the condition of a newborn baby. I think every Neonatologist should be grateful to her forever!
