As she says, \"Women crashed through the glass ceiling in business, engineering, medicine, military service, and more. We no longer think about \"women pilots\" or \"women astronauts.\" We're simply pilots and astronauts-along with being the nurses and teachers we were \"allowed\" to be for decades before our entry into professions that had been largely populated by men.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe adds a caution. \"Thankfully, women's lives have improved vastly over the past sixty years, but what's happening now?...Suddenly, the concept of an \"America for All\" is shifting back to the \"Old Boys' Network.\" Words such as \"diversity,\" \"equity,\" and \"inclusion\" are being reframed to imply that considering women and members of minority groups for positions is \"dumbing down\" government....Reading lets us find out about other lives, about loneliness and love, friends and fiends, frustration and fulfillment. We must act to regain what we have lost and improve conditions for all.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 268\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 30, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54089408250163,"sku":"9798295459030","price":22.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/F_a3QAzVPp9798295459030.webp?v=1789591820","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/intimate-passages-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
