Through the prism of gender, this text explores the contrasting cultures and practice of mathematics and science and asks how they impacted on women.

Claire Jones assesses nineteenth-century ideas about women's intellect, femininity and masculinity, and assesses how these attitudes shaped women's experiences as students and practitioners.
