[EPS12-rt] women and girls and physics

[Gillian Gehring]

A Question for the Round Table.
Half the population are women and girls.  Can the Round Table 
make helpful suggestions about the special ways in which the interest 
of school girls and women in the general public might be further 
stimulated because at present physics tends to be viewed in rather a 
negative way by many girls and women.
