Synopsis
Outstanding book for Girls!Dorothy Vaughan was the first African American woman to become a section manager for NACA. This was the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics. This group later became NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration). She has become famous as one of the subjects of a bestselling book by Margot Lee Shetterly. The book is titled Hidden Figures. It tells about black women math experts who helped develop planes for World War II. Their work was an important part of winning the war. They also worked on the space program. This work helped put a man on the moon. The book was made into a movie, also called Hidden Figures, with Octavia Spencer playing Vaughan.While she reached an important position within NACA, Dorothy still faced problems with segregation. Segregation is "enforced separation of different racial groups in a country, community, or establishment". African Americans -or colored as they were often called then - faced segregation. At that time in the United States, black people had to use separate items from white people. The unit she later managed, West Computing, was only for African American women. However, it was first managed by white women. Computers, when Dorothy joined the unit, meant people who worked in the area of mathematics. They computed the data needed by the people working on aeronautical research. Aeronautics is "the science or practice of travel through the air.", Outstanding book for Girls Dorothy Vaughan was the first African American woman to become a section manager for NACA.

- e***- (122)- 買家留下的信用評價。過去 1 個月購買已獲認證Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.
- 7***j (864)- 買家留下的信用評價。過去 1 個月購買已獲認證I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
- 2***4 (2351)- 買家留下的信用評價。過去 1 個月購買已獲認證I buy books from this seller all the time. The books are extremely affordable. Every once in a while there's an issue but more often than not, the outcome is positive. Packaging is just a thin sleeve with no bubble protection. This leaves the books open to damage in shipping. However, the seller ships for free. Book was actually in better condition than described - a nice surprise & greatly appreciated!! 👍 Thank you very much, seller!! I'll be back with another order!! 😀
