Mentoring Away the Glass Ceiling in Academia: A Cultured Critique
is different in that it calls attention to the role mentoring has
played on the "glass ceiling" phenomenon in higher education.
Narratives by and about the experiences of women of diverse
backgrounds in the United States and beyond the borders of this
nation shed needed light on the ways in which mentoring influences
identity formation and internal coping mechanisms in environments
often characterized by marginalization. Through these narratives,
these women serve as "quasi mentors" and create spaces for other
women to survive and thrive within the educational arena. This text
honors and extends previous work on the experiences of women
academics from diverse backgrounds. Through this book, there is a
call for new ways of understanding the vital role that narratives
play in speaking truth to the power of mentoring. The insights
present an expose of the extent to which politics, policies, and
equity agendas for mentoring have supported or failed women.
