  • Paperback

Are there places where women succeed in science? Numerous studies in recent years document a gender gap in science and engineering, showing women's interest in these fields declines from grade school to adulthood. WOMEN'S SCIENCE expands our conception of scientific practice as it reconfigures both women's role in science and the meaning of science in contemporary society.

Description
