This book is topical, fact-based, unbiased, and very well written. In clear language, without exaggerating the issues or being inflammatory, it gives us just the facts we need to understand, and it does so in a way that is engaging and entertaining. I write from the perspective of a father of an architect daughter who works for a high-end NYC firm. I hope the times are changing, and this book shows us the direction for change.

Finally there is a concise narrative that describes the history of women in architecture! But more important, this book eloquently describes the history of women in professional life, through the lens of the architectural profession. A must read for feminists everywhere!!!!

Not only informative, but a witty and engaging read.

Super!

nice!

This was a great short book on the lack of gender equity in the architecture profession in the U.S., looking at the history of women in American architecture, their visibility in architecture schools, and their invisibility in firm leadership and amongst architecture prize winners.

Really great overview of what is happening with women in the field of architecture. Some great incite into what are the things preventing women from moving up in the field. We are seeing more and more women students and not enough role models in the practice. This has to change. And this book is helpful to both women and men in understanding how we can begin to change this.

Highlights issues with attrition. Good, quick and easy enlightening and infuriating read.

A very important book that should be read by all tutors working in architecture schools around the world. When 32% of women are leaving at different stages in their career something is very wrong.

A good book for students if architecture
