Happy birthday to autodidact #mathematician Alicia Boole Stott (1860-1940), shown here with diagrams of cross-sections of 4D polytopes from her publications. Alicia came to math honestly. Her father Prof George Boole developed Boolean logic, but died when she was 4. Her mother Mary Everest Boole was an autodidact mathematician & innovative math educator, who taught kids math through manipulation of objects. 🧵1/5 https://minouette.etsy.com/listing/4459151187 #womenInSTEM #histsci #mathematics #geometry #mastoArt
