Marie Benedict writes stories about smart women living in a man's world. I have read The Other Einstein and Lady Clementine and The Personal Librarian. This time I read Her Hidden Genius which is about a British scientist named Rosalind Franklin. She studies physics and chemistry and takes pictures of things with X-rays. She was the first to hypothesize the double helix structure of DNA. James Watson and Francis Crick got the credit and were the first to go public with the hypothesis. This was an enjoyable book. The author does extensive research.
