Zusammenfassung:"This book offers a positive and compelling exploration of how South Asian girls can be encouraged to study science further and to consider STEM as a career. Drawing together both intersectional and personal perspectives, the book celebrates South Asian culture, sharing the stories of these individuals, their multifaceted identities and aspirations. At the micro-level, an intersectionality analysis reveals complicated identity negotiations of being young, female, a school student, science-orientated, imigré, Muslim, daughter and a sister, as well as how these identities might interact, nest, and shift. The chapters build on the authors previous work in science education, developing models of science identity (Sci-ID) and young women?́Ös engagement with the study of science and their aspirations for science-based career."
