505 0  When nothing matters except science -- Family matters to 
       science -- Will I make it? Family life for young 
       scientists -- Managing the controlled crash -- When the 
       ideal scientist meets the ideal mother -- A way forward 
       for universities, science, and scientists. 
520 8  "Work life in academia might sound like a dream: summers 
       off, year-long sabbaticals, the opportunity to switch 
       between classroom teaching and research. Yet, when it 
       comes to the sciences, life at the top U.S. research 
       universities is hardly idyllic. Based on surveys of over 2,
       000 junior and senior scientists, both male and female, as
       well as in-depth interviews, Failing Families, Failing 
       Science examines how the rigors of a career in academic 
       science makes it especially difficult to balance family 
       and work. Ecklund and Lincoln paint a nuanced picture that
       illuminates how gender, individual choices, and university
       and science infrastructures all play a role in shaping 
       science careers, and how science careers, in turn, shape 
       family life. They argue that both men and women face 
       difficulties, though differently, in managing career and 
       family. While women are hit harder by the pressures of 
       elite academic science, the institution of science-and 
       academic science, in particular-is not accommodating, 
       possibly not even compatible, for either women or men who 
       want to raise families. Perhaps most importantly, their 
       research reveals that early career academic scientists 
       struggle considerably with balancing their work and family
       lives. This struggle may prevent these young scientists 
       from pursuing positions at top research universities-or 
       further pursuing academic science at all- a circumstance 
       that comes at great cost to our national science 
       infrastructure. In an era when advanced scientific 
       research and education is more important than ever, 
       Failing Families, Failing Science presents a compelling 
       inside look at the world of the university scientists who 
       make it possible-and what universities and national 
       science bodies can do to make a difference in their lives"
