The latest issue of the excellent maths magazine iSquared is a special issue about "Women in maths". It contains a number of thought-provoking articles, interviews, reviews and quotes, from Emilie du Chatelet on the prejudice which excluded women from the sciences in the eighteenth century to Julia Robinson wishing to be remembered as a mathematician regardless of her sex. iSquared has been nominated for the Maggies awards for the best magazine covers of the past year. A tip - if you are thinking of subscribing to iSquared (which I recommend), if you vote for the awards you get a voucher which gives you a discount on a subscription.
