Pressezitat
'The Exceptions tells the infuriating, inspiring story of the sexism faced by female scientists at M.I.T. - and how they fought back... Thanks to Zernike, we see the personal toll unconscious bias takes - not just in time lost or talent discarded, but on the greater good. Maybe the reason we're still running for the cure is because systemic discrimination continues to run even faster. The good news is, Zernike's book will inspire a host of non-renegades to do something about it. Rules are indeed made to be broken. Have at it.' Bonnie Garmus New York Times
