超越居里：1903年至1963年物理界四位女性及其著名发现（英文）

　　本书是一部引进版的科学家传记。本书的作者是斯科特·卡尔文（Scott Calvin）博士，他曾在加州大学伯克利分校学习天文学和物理学，辅修古典文学，之后获得了纽约城市大学的化学物理学博士学位，他曾在不同的机构教学、研究，并为不同领域的学生提供建议，这些机构包括海军研究实验室、布鲁克海文国家实验室、海顿天文馆、斯坦福同步辐射实验室、萨拉劳伦斯学院和雷曼学院，他教授的课程范围很广，包括创新课程，例如“物理学的疯狂想法”“火箭科学”和“蒸汽朋克物理学”。他的著作包括《我们能做到！一般物理学图解小说指南》《每个人的XAFS》，以及公开资源的手工立体书。

　　Scott Calvin，With a major in astronomy and physics and a minor in classics from the University of California Berkeley， followed by a PhD in chemical physics from the City University of New York， Dr Calvin has taught， conducted research， and advised students in a wide variety of institutions， including the Naval Research Laboratory， Brookhaven National Laboratory， the Hayden Planetarium， the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory， Sarah Lawrence College， Examkrackers， and Lehman College. His course offerings have run the gamut， including innovative courses such as Crazy Ideas in Physics， Rocket Science， and Steampunk Physics， as have his books， including We Can Do It！ A Problem Solwng Graphic Novel Guide for General Physics， XAFS for Everyone， and the open-source artisanal pop-up book National Synchrotron Light Source H： Long Island's State of the Art X-Ray Microscope.
