Mary Everest Boole (11 March 1832 in Wickwar, Gloucestershire – 17 May 1916 in Middlesex, England) was a self-taught mathematician married to logical pioneer George Boole during his years in Cork, Ireland. She is known as an author of didactic works on mathematics, such as Philosophy and Fun of Algebra. Her unconventional ideas on education, as expounded in The Preparation of the Child for Science, included encouraging children to explore mathematics through playful activities such as curve stitching. Her life is of interest to feminists as an example of how women made careers in an academic system that did not welcome them. Read more on Wikipedia
