Description
An eye-opening deep dive into the ways women are discriminated against in STEM fields...and how that diminishes our ability to stay competitive in an ever-evolving tech economy. Think sexism is a thing of the past? Not for women who are drawn to careers in vital, economy-building areas such as science, technology, engineering, and math. Incredibly smart, talented women-half our population-face ongoing challenges and stereotypes that prevent them from succeeding in their STEM careers and making the vital contributions that lead to scientific discoveries and brand-new tech that could make lives better. And when women don't get a seat at that problem-solving table, we all suffer as a result of the creative ideas, collaborative solutions, and clever inventions that are lost when women in STEM are discriminated against. In this engaging, eye-opening book, professor Heather Graham combines spirited research with the raw, authentic stories of women employed in science labs, IT departments, and tech firms to create a true-to-life view of the stereotypes and prejudices women face in these fields. She digs deep into the ways sexist misconceptions affect the work environment, damage collaborative efforts, and slow down success-and shares the triumphs of overcoming them in the #metoo era. The result is a powerful look at what's going wrong-and what steps are needed so women can thrive in STEM. With insights, wisdom, practical applications and more, you'll be inspired to do your part to make STEM fields a welcoming place for future generations of talented women who deserve their seat at the table.
