Publisher Description:
This book is comprised of a series of stories describing situations resulting from being the Only Woman "caught" in a male-dominated world. The author has attempted to keep the book on the "light" side, since many of stories are funny in retrospect. These incidents were actually very hurtful and some were even degrading at the time they occurred. Other stories are not intended to be amusing. They describe the realities of discrimination and "double-standards" facing a female trying to compete (or even survive) in a male dominated technical field. The impact of the incidents described in the book may be difficult for someone to fully understand who has not walked in the shoes of a minority.
