Le livre idéal pour les avant-gardistes, les féministes en herbe et les jeunes qui sont prêts à transformer le monde!
Partout sur la planète, les femmes aspirent à se rendre jusqu'au bout de leurs rêves. Depuis longtemps, elles prennent la parole, se tiennent debout et luttent pour ce qui est juste. Et ce, même si certains affirment qu'elles devraient plutôt se taire.
Qu'elles oeuvrent dans le domaine des sciences, des arts, des sports ou de la politique, de nombreuses femmes à travers l'Histoire ont démontré leur détermination à abolir les barrières et à repousser le statu quo. Ces femmes nous ont, entre autres, permis de mieux comprendre notre monde.
Dans ce livre inspirant, Chelsea Clinton présente un groupe de 13 femmes incroyables qui ont changé le cours de l'Histoire. Ce groupe inclut les personnalités suivantes: Marie Curie, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, Viola Desmond, Sissi Lima do Amor, Leymah Gbowee, Caroline Herschel, Wangari Maathai, Aisha Rateb, J.K. Rowling, Kate Sheppard, Yuan Yuan Tan, Mary Verghese et Malala Yousafzai.
