Seeks to answer the question of why elite institutions have so few women scientists and engineers tenured on their faculties

This volume examines major issues facing successful women in academic science. In doing so, Sue Rosser outlines the persisting and shifting perspectives of women who have achieved seniority and remained in academia during the last fifteen years through survey data from women who received POWRE awards from the NSF.

In this timely and invaluable study, Sue Rosser chronicles the plight of women faculty across the USA noting the difficulties, double standards and backlash that they routinely face.
