Description

Absent Aviators: Gender Issues in Aviation provides a deep look into the challenges women face within the aviation industry. Published by Routledge, this book examines the specific gender issues present in the aviation workplace, focusing on the persistent shortage of female pilots in both military and civilian sectors. By looking at the broader context of gender discrimination in masculine-dominated fields, the text explores why certain professions remain imbalanced. For instance, the book notes that women represent only about 10% of employees in engineering, a statistic often used to illustrate how systemic barriers in male-dominated occupations can be difficult to overcome. This collection of related chapters offers research-based insights into the social and professional dynamics that impact women's participation in flight and aviation careers.
