دانلود کتاب Women in higher education : empowering change

The Review of Higher Education 27.4 (2004) 589-590 Women in Higher Education: Empowering Change addresses the perennial problems faced by women in higher education and suggests possible strategies to effect change in the status of women and feminist scholarship. JoAnn DiGeorgio-Lutz states up front that empowerment is attainable but that it cannot be truly achieved without a more significant transformation of institutional values. Further, she rightly cautions against the popular view of interpreting women's progress in higher education in terms of numerical representation. Instead, women's status must be understood in terms of the persistent challenges faced by women within courses, disciplines, departments, and institutions. It is helpful to organize this review around the "challenges" and "strategies" offered throughout the book.
