In a well-researched overview of the professional progress of women in the U.S. since 1776, the authors describe women's struggle for political and professional opportunity in the pursuit of equality. Focusing on the "learned professions" and set in the context of an ever-changing political climate, this book covers the challenges as well as the victories within the evolving workplace. This introductory text is the first in a series examining progress in specific professions, including engineering, academia, law, medicine, science and accounting. Geared specifically for young women choosing career paths, the series is a must read for anyone about to enter the workforce.
