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" --The publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Scientists.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85118696 650 0 Scientists|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85118696|xFamily relationships.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005369 650 0 Work and family.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85148139 650 0 Science|xVocational guidance.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85118607 650 0 Science|xStudy and teaching (Higher)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85118596 650 7 Scientists.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1108895 650 7 Families.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1728849 650 7 Work and family.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1180235 650 7 Science|xVocational guidance.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1108513 650 7 Science|xStudy and teaching (Higher)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1108455 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Lincoln, Anne E.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2006064145 776 08 |iPrint version:|aEcklund, Elaine.|tFailing Families, Failing Science : Work-Family Conflict in Academic Science.|dNew York : NYU Press, ©2016|z9781479843121 |w(OCoLC)926743503 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1084154|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
