Lawrence Summers, the president of Harvard, is mentioned as suggesting that women scientists are uncommon due to a lack of innate ability. Female scientists mentioned include Marjorie Shapiro, chair of the physics department at the University of California, Berkeley, and Alice Agogino, a professor of mechanical engineering at Berkeley.
