Sinossi
Eve Sprunt, a shy young woman with big ambitions, dreams of a life that includes both scientific work and a family. In 1969, she enters MIT, where women are still a small minority on campus and skepticism follows her every step. As she advances academically, Eve confronts professors who underestimate her - and others who cross professional boundaries. One mentor, however, urges her toward a PhD at Stanford, where Eve becomes the first woman to earn a doctorate in geophysics. Nine months after defending her thesis, Eve gives birth to her first child - then interviews for jobs with her baby in tow. Six oil companies make offers. When she begins work in Dallas, her carefully laid plans unravel, forcing her to reinvent herself as a petroleum engineer. Over a thirty-five-year career in the oil and gas industry, Eve repeatedly adapts to workplace bias, shifting markets, and high-stakes corporate culture, transforming setbacks into new opportunities for growth, global adventures, and leadership. Now, in Defending My Work, Eve shares her remarkable journey as a woman navigating - and succeeding in - a male-dominated field, offering practical guidance, encouragement, and hard-won insight for readers of all ages.
