توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی
From the Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist who broke
the story, the inspiring account of the sixteen female
scientists who forced MIT to publicly admit it had been
discriminating against its female faculty for
years—sparking a nationwide reckoning with the pervasive
sexism in science.
In 1999, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology admitted to
discriminating against women on its faculty, forcing
institutions across the country to confront a problem they had
long ignored: the need for more women at the top levels of
science. Written by the journalist who broke the story for
The Boston Globe, The Exceptions is
the untold story of how sixteen highly accomplished women on
the MIT faculty came together to do the work that triggered the
historic admission.
The Exceptions centers on the life of Nancy Hopkins, a
reluctant feminist who became the leader of the sixteen and a
hero to two generations of women in science. Hired to
prestigious universities at the dawn of affirmative action
efforts in the 1970s, Dr. Hopkins and her peers embarked on
their careers believing that discrimination against women was a
thing of the past—that science was, at last, a pure
meritocracy. For years they explained away the discrimination
they experienced as the exception, not the rule. Only when
these few women came together after decades of underpayment and
the denial of credit, advancement, and equal resources to do
their work did they recognize the relentless pattern: women
were often marginalized and minimized, especially as they grew
older. Meanwhile, men of similar or lesser ability had their
career paths paved and widened.
The Exceptions is a powerful yet all-too-familiar story
that will resonate with all professional women who experience
what those at MIT called "21st-century discrimination"—a
subtle and stubborn bias, often unconscious but still damaging.
As in bestsellers from Hidden Figures to Lab Girl
and Code Girls, we are offered a rare glimpse into the
world of high-level scientific research and learn about the
extraordinary female scientists whose work has been overlooked
throughout history, and how these women courageously fought for
fair treatment as they struggled to achieve the recognition
they rightfully deserve.
