A new Springer book, Women’s Contributions to Science and Technology Through ICWES Conferences, by Monique Frize, Claire Deschênes, and Ruby Heap, chronicles the inspiring history of ICWES and the founding of INWES. In his review, Paul Dufour (University of Ottawa) highlights how decades of conferences have built a global community of women engineers and scientists, promoting mentorship, collaboration, and gender equity in STEM.
Monique Frize is also the author of Laura Bassi and Science in 18th Century Europe: The Extraordinary Life and Role of Italy’s Pioneering Female Professor, another remarkable Springer publication.
