Unsourced details

@Y-barton:, can you please add the source for this edit [1]? It would also be nice to explain the time gap between her degree and doctorate. Cheers, Kautilya3 (talk) 09:40, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Kautilya3. The 2 sources for this edit are given in ru:wiki - in fact, I've put them there myself! :) If you think they should be copied to en:wiki, I can do it. As to the time gap between her degree and doctorate, I really don't know what it means. I gather that she had some sort of a career crisis around 1986, and changed jobs around this time. I assume she had some opposition, although the details are murky. All the best. Y-barton (talk) 15:56, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just to clarify here, her degree in 1964 in Russian system was already equivalent to Ph.D. The second degree is like Ph.D+. Y-barton (talk) 16:53, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks. I guess I should have looked up the wikilinks that you provided instead of guessing! - Kautilya3 (talk) 16:57, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
