The effect was first described by the suffragist and abolitionist Matilda Joslyn Gage in her 1870 tract ‘Woman As Inventor’. It is a phenomenon that can be applied not just to science but to all areas of life, from literature to politics to music, in which when we examine history more closely, we see that the accomplishments of women have consistently been overlooked. In the history which we have been taught, no-one says it better than Virginia Woolf - anonymous was a woman. But we are now seeing women being written back into the history books – give examples - and what we see is that there is an alternative history of the world, the true story, in which beneath the camouflage and the spin and the smokescreens, women have played as central a role as men in all aspects of human accomplishment. And while this may come as a surprise to men, it comes as no surprise at all to us women, because we have been doing this all along.“
