On a larger scale, what came to be known as \"Noether's Theorem\"--called by a Nobel laureate \"the single most profound result in all of physics\"--supplied the basis for the most accurate theory in the history of physics, the Standard Model, which forms our modern theory of matter. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Noether's life story is equally important and revelatory in understanding the pernicious nature of sexual prejudice in the sciences, revealing the shocking discrimination against one of the true intellectual giants of the twentieth century, a woman effectively excluded from the opportunities given to her male counterparts. Noether's personality and optimistic spirit, as Lee Phillips reveals, enabled her unique genius to persevere and arrive at insights that still astonish those who encounter them a century later.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter receiving his PhD in theoretical physics from Dartmouth College and completing his post-doctoral work, Lee Phillips worked for several decades as a research physicist at the Naval Research Laboratory.
