You will read the stories of 33 women who did so much in their lives that they went down in history. They were not alike, they did different things and lived in different times. Yet they had a lot in common: they were full of incredible strength of spirit, outstanding talent and inspiration, worked very hard and were not afraid to take risks. At the same time, they were not just dreamers, but stubbornly promoted their thoughts and fought for the implementation of their ideas. They managed to break many stereotypes, defend new rights, move science and art forward, conquer the sky, amaze the world with beauty, and even save lives. All the heroines were born in Ukraine, and they are united by their love for their native land.
