- Description
- This book tells the story of over one hundred women who are both professors and mothers and examines how they navigated their professional lives at different career stages. The authors base their findings on a study that asks how women faculty on the tenure track manage work and family in their early careers when their children are young and then again in mid-career when their children are older. The women studied work in a range of institutional settings—research universities, comprehensive universities, liberal arts colleges, and community colleges—and in a variety of disciplines, including the sciences, the humanities, and the social sciences.
