Women have used and made tools for thousands of years and yet their success in the field of Technology is often overlooked. For every Elon Musk sending rockets into space, there's a Katherine Johnson working behind the scenes at NASA, a hidden figure in the race to space.

50 WOMEN IN TECHNOLOGY sheds light on the work of forgotten pioneers who defied expectations and broke new ground in a range of disciplines from gaming to genetics, medicine to mathematics, astronomy to AI. Inspirational for students of STEM and enlightening for those wanting to learn more about new developments in the tech world.

Also includes 25 exclusive interviews with contemporary women in tech, who are at the forefront of development and discovery in the fast-paced world of technology today such as Yewande Akinola (Sustainability), Marita Cheng (Robotics), Anna Lukasson-Herzig (Computing/AI), Mary Lou Jepsen (Imaging/Healthcare), Tan Le (Medical Tech), Clarice Phelps (Nuclear Chemist), Sheri Graner Ray (Videogames), Brenda Romero (Video Games), Anda Waluyo Sapardan (Medical Tech/Healthcare), Liza Velarde (Healthcare), and Stephanie Willerth (Bioengineering).
