Hidden Human Computers: The Black Women of Nasa (Hidden Heroes)

Full disclosure: I wrote the introduction to this book. But I agreed to put my name on it because I think it's an important text. One of the co-authors is the granddaughter of one of the NASA computers, and so she writes from an inside perspective. Also, it's so great to have something that is accessible to young adults right around the age that they are becoming convinced that science is or is not for them. I hope it changes their visions of what is possible for the better!

After the movie "Hidden Figures" was released, I searched for other related information. Glad I found this book. It's made for 3rd graders or lower, but still a nice story. Who knew these women were such mathletes!

I haven't read this yet but I wanted this book to piggy back off of the "Hidden Figures" book. I wanted my grandchildren to have access to this important piece of history.

This book came so quickly after i placed my order that I was able to read it before hearing the author speaker. I brought it with me & now have an autographed copy.
