The studies are both illuminating and prescriptive for designing and implementing intervention programs. This book is an essential tool for: college faculty and advisors who implement activities and programs designed to promote the success of women in science and engineering, as well as those who fund these programs; academic researchers; K-12 educators; and IT industry professionals committed to a diverse workforce."--Jacket.
