Lydia Miller profiles 57 women whose achievements across fields as diverse as art, science and social reform have been often overlooked. Alongside familiar names – Ada Lovelace, Edith Cavell, Marie Colvin – her illustrated ‘contemplation of heroines’ includes examples such as pioneering nutritionist Elsie Widdowson, whose work informed the British Government’s approach to rationing, and Jayaben Desai, who mobilized workers against unfair treatment.
