While many universities speak of transformation and equity, the lived experiences of women academics often remain underrepresented in institutional narratives. From navigating promotion pathways to balancing family responsibilities and institutional expectations, women continue to face layered challenges as they pursue careers in teaching, research, and leadership. These journeys are rarely linear; they are shaped by moments of opportunity, structural barriers, mentorship, and resilience. Bringing these experiences into view is essential for understanding how academic systems function in practice-and for identifying the changes needed to make them more inclusive and supportive. Autoethnographies of Women's Career Progression in Academia documents and amplifies the diverse lived experiences of women in academia, offering both practical and emotional insight into the systems, cultures, and relationships that shape women's academic trajectories. Through personal narratives and reflective analysis, the book reveals how institutional structures, mentorship, identity, and life circumstances intersect to influence career development. In doing so, it creates space for voices often absent from formal academic discourse while contributing to deeper understanding of the barriers and supports that shape women's advancement in higher education. Covering topics such as burnout and resilience, gendered recognition, and motherhood, this book is a transformative academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, higher education researchers, social scientists, feminists, research leaders, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Igi Global Scientific Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47969318731927,"sku":"9798337375397","price":13199.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798337375397.webp?v=1782921324","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/autoethnographies-of-womens-career-progression-in-academia-9798337375397","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
