Emilie du Châtelet (17 dez 1706 ano – 10 set 1749 ano)
Descrição:
French mathematician and physicist
She translated, edited, and annotated scientific works (such as Newton's) and helped spread their ideas. She used physics to convince others that Newton's theory of gravity was correct.
She was upset that women were excluded from scientific work and believed that translating was a way around that.
