While I was compiling the results of a survey for female
scientists that I had given in the fall of 2003, I came across many
comments such as:
"Women don't have the collaboration
opportunities that are available to men."
"Men are able to 'play the game' way better. We need to
learn."
"...men
figure out how to work with each other in the playground and women
don't get the same opportunity."
I
couldn't agree more. So, based on 11 years experience working as a
scientist in a Navy laboratory and 5 years experience teaching at a
university, I decided to write this book.
