Barbara Gates’s collection of essays relocates women as popularisers of
science. The writers studied in Natural Eloquence have all repackaged science in
some way. Their originality lies not only in the distinctive narratives they
developed, but in their various views of a Universe believed to be unknowable
from a single perspective. Published by University of Wisconsin Press,
£14.50, ISBN 029915484X.
