The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women

It's great that the author highlights the fates of women who would become the worst kind of involuntary pioneer: who had to suffer and die for people, lawmakers, corporations to start caring about a modicum of workplace safety and worker protection.

The writing itself starts smoothly and easy to follow, alas after a while gets repetitive and lengthy recounting every single minute event in detail and it seems a good editor could have shortened the book substantially.

Four stars for the subject, three for the writing.
