The Exceptions: Nancy Hopkins, MIT, and the Fight for Women in Science
Book Description
As Bonnie Garmus of the New York Times wrote, "Thanks to Zernike, we see the personal toll unconscious bias takes — not just in time lost or talent discarded, but on the greater good. Maybe the reason we’re still running for the cure is because systemic discrimination continues to run even faster. The good news is, Zernike’s book will inspire a host of non-renegades to do something about it. Rules are indeed made to be broken. Have at it."
