History of Mathematics The Contributions of Women Written by Julie Boyd (University of South Australia, 1996) Mathematicians in general are not a well known group. However, women mathematicians are even less well known. It is possible to read most histories of mathematics and find little or no mention of women mathematicians, even of the few there were. This article is therefore intended to trace the impact some of these women have had on the development of mathematics. However, firstly, why were there so few women mathematicians? It appears that the reason for this was that in almost any age women faced many barriers, which men of far less ability did not have to face. For women, talents alone were not sufficient criteria for success in mathematics. The woman also needed to have drive and determination, not only to ignore role stereotypes but also to overcome the restrictions placed on their education. It was not until these barriers were crossed that women were able to develop and enjoy their talents (Perl 1978 and Osen 1990). The women that will be discussed in this article all came from either academic or wealthy upper-class families. Some of the women were from the French and English aristocracy and so had the benefits of outstanding mathematicians as teachers. This was important as education for girls was until very recently nonexistent or very much restricted, as there was great prejudice against women studying subjects such as mathematics or science. These areas were considered to be male fields. However, even when women did receive the equivalent of a secondary education, colleges were closed to them, as it was believed that women were made for childrearing and that "brain work" may conflict with this function (Perl 1978).

For instance, the greater part of Grace Chisholm Youngs biography was dedicated to her role as mother and wife. Only a short amount of Youngs biography was dedicated to her math research and publications. I found this very disturbing,and, honestly quite an insult to these outstanding and courageous women. I also think it sends the wrong message to those women aspiring to be career mathematicians, that no matter how much you accomplish as a mathematician, you will always be thought of first as a wife and mother.

INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE of WOMEN-MATHEMATICIANS ``MATHEMATICS. MODELING. ECOLOGY'' Volgograd, 27 - 31 May, 1996 The foundation meeting of Russian women mathematicians held on May 25, 1993 in Souzdal has established the Association of Russian Women in Mathematics. The Association has been created aiming to render informational, consulting, and social support for women who have chosen mathematics as the sphere of their scientific activity. The International Congresses of Women-Mathematicians were held under the auspice of UNESCO in Puschino (June 1994) and Voronezh (June, 1995). The Russian Associations ``Women-Mathematicians" and ``Women in Science and Education", Volgograd State University and Ecological Academy propose to hold 27 31 May 1996 in Volgograd the fourth meeting - an International Conference of Women-Mathematicians ``Mathematics. Modeling. Ecology."

85. Read This: Notable Women In Mathematics: A Biographical Dictionary in mathematics at a level suitable for high school and early college students thatcelebrates the diversity present in the community of women mathematicians. http://www.maa.org/reviews/notable.html

Read This! The MAA Online book review column Notable Women In Mathematics: A Biographical Dictionary edited by Charlene Morrow and Teri Perl Reviewed by Libby Krussel Until recently, Women of Mathematics: A Biobibliographic Sourcebook , 1987, edited by Louise Grinstein and Paul Campbell (also from Greenwood Press), and Teri Perl's Women, Numbers and Dreams were practically the only two reference works on women in mathematics. This new book complements the other two by emphasizing the human element. The result is a valuable book for and about women in mathematics at a level suitable for high school and early college students that celebrates the diversity present in the community of women mathematicians. The goal of the editors, stated on page xv, is admirable: to encourage more girls into mathematics and to spark enthusiasm for the field in all students. To this end, they have collected biographical information on 59 women mathematicians, spanning the last 2000 years. The emphasis, however, is on contemporary women mathematicians: of the 59, 40 are currently living and working in the field of mathematics or mathematics education in the US or in Europe. Much of this material comes from personal interviews, and thus goes beyond each woman's mathematics to discuss the person behind the mathematics. The essays are a delight to read. Each gives a very human and encompassing picture of the whole woman as mathematician, teacher, mother, wife or partner. Each one illustrates the path followed, not just professionally but also personally. Each woman's mathematical contributions are explained in terms that are easily understandable by a high school or college student interested in what a mathematics career may be like. This book provides an excellent complement and companion volume to the recently reviewed

J. McKeen Cattell (1913), owner and editor of Science , "There is not a single mulatto who has done creditable scientific work."In Mathematics, more than any other field of study, have we heard proclamations and statements similar to, " The Negro is incapable of succeeding ." Ancient and present achievements contradict such statements. One of the purposes of this website is to exhibit the inaccuracy of those proclamations by exhibiting the accomplishments of the peoples of Africa and the African Diaspora within the Mathematical Sciences. Less than 1% of all mathematicians are Black 25% of these are women . This website is dedicated to them. There are four primary webpages - see the contents below.
