520 _a"This book studies the prevalence of gender inequalities in the domains of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in India. It explores the paradox of an increasing number of women pursuing higher education in STEM fields while a relatively low percentage enter the job market. The book analyses the factors that contribute to the loss of potential contributions from women in science. It underscores the need to understand the construction of masculinity and femininity, as well as male privilege and female disadvantage, and how these concepts are associated with STEM. Lucid, topical, and rich in empirical data, this book will be indispensable for scholars and researchers of women's studies, gender studies, sociology of science, science and technology studies, political studies, and public policy. It will also be useful to policy makers, organisations and professionals working in the area"--
