商品簡介
Women make up increasing numbers of graduate students and graduate degree recipients, but their presence in the ranks of tenured faculty has not increased in a generation. Mama, Ph.D. offers a selection of deeply-felt personal narratives by smart, interesting women both in and out of the academy, which explore why this is the case and suggest what can be done to change it. This anthology voices stories of academic women attempting to reconcile bodies with brains, writing about their experiences choosing to have, not have, or delay children. The literary essays in this anthology will speak to and offer support for any woman attempting to combine work and family, and will make recommendations on how to make the academy a more family-friendly workplace.
