Paperback. Condition: New. These essays offer fresh insights on the question of the paucity of women in higher education and together form a thoughtful and contemporary response to Lawrence Summers and the 'Woman Question' in the twenty-first century.This uniquely interdisciplinary study offers a provocative, contemporary look at the 'Woman Question' in relation to higher education at the dawn of the twenty-first century.

Scholars and researchers of women's studies, higher education, and a range of humanities and social sciences will find this book a welcome addition to the literature.…
