In this fascinating book, Deborah Jaffe introduces the women who saw themselves as inventors, electricians, engineers, milliners, nurses, motorcar drivers, gentlewomen, spinsters, wives or duchesses, and gives them their rightful title of ingenious women. Altthough the outbreak of the First World War was a watershed in women's lives, as this book shows, their inventions has already been making an impact on all our lives for nearly 300 years.
