Opis

Women scientists leave the profession in greater proportions than men and are under-represented in leadership roles. In this book, Kate White looks at the challenges that women face, which often result from discrimination and being positioned as outsiders. She asks the question: Why is it so important to keep women in science research? Younger women and men reject the traditional model of a successful scientist a single male for whom science is like a religious vocation. Instead, they support new professional models that support work life balance." Keeping Women in Science" explores new models to enable younger women and men to combine successful science research careers with family responsibilities."
