The Real Rosalind

She was angry, irascible, and combative. More than anything else? She was correct. Rosalind Franklin grew up in the mid-twentieth century with an unmatched passion for science. As a woman, she worked twice as hard to gain recognition in a male-dominated field. Eventually, her perseverance earned her a name in the scientific community. But her male colleagues shunned her, making her job difficult. When the scientific community raced to discover the nature of DNA, Rosalind's work would prove critical . . . but her contributions would be ignored as other scientists stepped forward to claim her work as their own. A true story of diligence, intelligence, and courage.
