Publisher Description:
When most women were not even attending college, Marie Curie earned degrees in physics and mathematics. When she began studying rocks, she soon discovered elements that gave off an invisible energy called radioactivity. Because of her amazing discoveries, in 1903 Marie Curie became the first woman to receive a Nobel Prize for Physics. Today, she is remembered as one of the most important scientists of all time.
