Short stories, noveletts and novellas by Judith Merril, born Josephine JulieGrossman, including the novelette Daughters of Earth (the story which contributed to the book title), containing a plethora of female characters that challenge the traditional roles women were often relegated to in 50s science fiction. Conveys extremely positive portrayals of female scientists who are often simultaneously mothers, intrepid pioneer women willing to set off on their own, and tender relationships with men whom they happen to meet, often, of lower occupational level.
