The Black Women Scientists and Inventors Book is so far the best book I have bought this year. It was quite fitting that I bought from this platform on the last day of international Woman's Month. It is doubles up as both an excellent reference book ands of a coffee table book. I am learning a lot from reading from it everyday. I highly recommend it.
