The Mediocrity of Women?

on BBC Radio 3

An investigation by Elizabeth Card into the success of women as scientists and engineers.
Why are so few women entering science and why do so few achieve positions of real eminence in science? How important are factors like the differences between male and female brains in diverting female interests from scientific pursuits? Are women mediocre in the sense that the best women do not do as well as the best men? Contributors include DR ALICE HEIM, DR CORINNE HUTT, DR ESTHER SARAGA , DR STANLEY KING, DR AARON KLUG , DAME MARY CARTWRIGHT, DAME HARRIETTE CHICK Producer DAVID PATERSON
