Mary Somerville (d. 1872), the pioneering mathematician and scientist with whose obituary the anthology begins, would have been astonished by what many of the other women remembered here achieved - not least one of the more prominent graduates of the Oxford college that was named Somerville after her - Margaret Thatcher (d. 2013). Great Women's Lives also recalls the lives of actresses, aviators, botanists, doctors, iconic members of the British royal family, musicians, Nobel Prize winners, novelists, travellers, US first ladies, and many more.
