Opis

Todays immense technological growth benefits many; however, it remains a privilege as it only benefits those with digital information access. Also, despite the growth of computer systems and technology in society, the percentage of women, in particular women of color, involved in the technological expansion has continued at a decrease. Gender and Information Technology: Moving Beyond Access to Co-Create Global Partnership explores the decline in female involvement in technology as well as other discriminatory and stereotypical issues related to the industry. This significant, compelling title defines core roots of the problem while proposing solutions from a feminist perspective.
