  The main purpose of this book is to provide women contemplating an academic career with a realistic view of the obstacles ahead of them. The contributions reflect the experience of women academics in a wide range of countries, including the UK, the US, Israel, Germany, India, Turkey and Lebanon. Some of the contributors have international reputations, others are virtually unknown. As a group, they reflect the reality of the position of women in universities at the end of the 1980s.
