Outsiders: Personal Stories of Marginalization and Perseverance in the Geosciences - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
The geological sciences are among the least diverse of all the sciences. Despite achieving gender parity within our student population, the underrepresentation of women, people of color, and people with disabilities persists across our professional ranks. This book presents autobiographical stories by eight professional earth scientists from underrepresented groups, who persevered in their quests to develop a career in the earth sciences despite experiencing marginalization rooted in prejudice, bias, ignorance, and/or indifference. Their stories are unique and frank and send a message that marginalization is surmountable, a condition to be navigated and to be changed.
