Recenzii
Donald writes eloquently... Its a great read
A sharp indictment of male privilege and an urgent appeal for a more inclusive practice of science.
a manifesto for action...As well as offering moral arguments for equality of opportunity, Donald presents a powerful case for change based on improved outcomes... [a] heartfelt book
An enjoyable and useful primer on the challenges faced by women in STEM...Practical and engaging, Not Just for the Boys is a valuable tool that makes a clear case for supporting more women to take up and stay in STEM careers.
Informative and thorough... if you want to help build a future where women scientists can simply be scientists, but still aren't sure what you can do, reading this book is a good place to start.
A really important topic that needs addressing. Donald does so effectively...Where the book really comes alive is when Donald talks about her own work and experience
lively and provocative
There is a truth universally recognised by women that at least some of their ideas will be attributed to men! Thanks to Athene Donald's great book I now know the name for this: the Matilda effect. The issues women face in achieving in science are laid out to make an easy read. An important book for women and mankind.
Thoughtful, thorough, comprehensive; lots of telling anecdotes... Revealing - draws on a lot of experience in this field and highlights issues that still are prevalent.
An informational read for anyone who is a teacher or instructor at any level, and for anyone who wants to be a better supporter and advocate for women in STEM.
