Some Women in Science and Technology Resources on the Internet

"In my younger days, when I was pained by half-educated, loose, and inaccurate ways which we all have, I used to say, 'How much women need exact science.'. But since I have known some workers in science who were not always true to the teachings of nature, who have loved self more than science, I have said, 'How much science needs women!'." - Maria Mitchell (American astronomer, nineteenth century)
