This book offers a positive and compelling exploration of how young south Asian women can be encouraged to study science further and to consider STEM as a career. Drawing together both intersectional and personal perspectives, the book celebrates south Asian culture, sharing the stories of these individuals, their multifaceted identities, aspirations and successes.

At the micro-level, an intersectional analysis reveals complicated identity negotiations of being young, female, a science-orientated student, imigr©, Muslim, a daughter and a sister, as well as how these identities might interact, nest, and shift. The chapters build on the authors' previous work in science education, developing models of science identity (Sci-ID) and womenâs engagement with the study of science and their aspirations for a science-based career.
