In this newly revised 25th wedding anniversary edition, acclaimed writer and journalist Vivian Gornick interviews famous and lesser-known researchers, compares their experiences then and today, and implies that, although very little has changed in the world of science, what's different is women's expectations that they can and will do well. From the disparaging commentary by Harvard's then-president to federal reports and press coverage has focused on the ways in which women supposedly can't do science. Gornick's original interviews show how profound and severe discrimination against women was back then in all scientific domains. Her new interviews, with some of the same women she spoke to 25 years ago, give a fresh description of the crisis and great successes these women have observed.
