At the turn of the 20th century, Lise Meitner dreamed of becoming a scientist. In her time, girls were not supposed to want careers, much less ones in science. But Lise was smartand determined. She earned a PhD in physics, then became the first woman physics professor at the University of Berlin. The work was thrilling, but Nazi Germany was a dangerous place for a Jewish woman. When the risks grew too great, Lise escaped to Sweden, where she continued the experiments that she and her laboratory partner had worked on for years. Her efforts led to the discovery of nuclear fission and altered the course of history."-- provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (page 277). 600 10 $a Meitner, Lise, $d 1878-1968 $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Physicists $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Women scientists $v Juvenile fiction. 655 7 $a Novels in verse. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 9 952 $l SMPE094 $d 20240104021045.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20221026010430.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20221008010506.0 952 $l ENPC715 $d 20220820010428.0 952 $l FLPB224 $d 20220706010412.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630014525.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220615010256.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20220520010531.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220217010950.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72D1185C8FBF11ECBA4AA6A62FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
