Description
"[T]his chapter uses original qualitative research, including interviews with industry actors and observations of industry meetings and events, to examine how the industry currently handles gender. Given the large number of US PMSC firms, US citizens working in this field, and US contracts, this chapter focuses on the US organizations while still incorporating the influences of the global nature of the field."
