This book responds to the critical need for astronomers to understand, operationalize, and assess the efficacy of DEI efforts on research collaboration. Within these three areas, it explores the historical context, present landscape, and best inclusion strategies that all astronomers should know while conducting science. The topics within implementation and assessment provided in this book are intended to benefit readers with the knowledge needed to remedy issues of marginalization and harassment in astronomy, and thereby increase the capacity for scientific exploration in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes real-life case studies of DEI efforts with a critique of successes and shortfalls.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides actionable strategies for institutions and community groups to propose, implement, and assess the efficacy of DEI policies and practices.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGives historical and social context on the forces that have created and perpetuated present disparities and a review of participation and outcomes in the astronomy landscape.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides information to demystify decision-making structures in science, including how priorities, funding, and long-range plans are determined, and ways institutions can require greater accountability in research inclusion.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.43 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 23, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46939347026095,"sku":"9780750349079","price":55.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/7314\/1679\/files\/RjEwOf0Ndq9780750349079.webp?v=1779393156","url":"https:\/\/valuevaultclub.myshopify.com\/products\/an-astronomical-inclusion-revolution-advancing-diversity-equity-and-inclusion-in-professional-astronomy-and-astrophysics-paperback","provider":"Value Vault Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
