| 520 | |a Women in Science is an innovative examination of the difficulties that women encounter in the scientific community, including the factors that contribute to the low representation and low retention rate of women in scientific disciplines and other competitive professional career tracks. Angela M. Pattatucci has brought together a group of 25 women scientists from diverse backgrounds and in varying places along the career continuum - from students to high-ranking faculty. They give us a personal look at a scientific environment in which women are judged more by stereotype than ability and are forced to travel the road to success in isolation. They share strategies for making it through gender-specific boundaries and showcase examples of programs that do support women in establishing successful scientific careers. Women in Science is intended for academics and professionals in a wide variety of disciplines, including women's studies, gender studies, communication, management, public health, and public administration. | ||
