  Women in almost all walks of life have found at some point that their ideas are being stifled and a rise to the top of their profession has been blocked. However there are some who have broken through this glass ceiling, and whose thinking has altered not only their particular field but the way we see the world. In this work, forty such women from across the globe in areas as diverse as computer science, physics, literature, philosophy, politics, law and anthropology, talk about their beliefs and lives, hopes and concerns for the future.
