Dear Marcio,
Thanks for the entertainment provided by your promotion of the book "BREAKING IN (TM)." Your message arrived just as I was feeling a tad crotchety for having posted a dusty old 1992 paper complaining that industrial design in Canada was only 4% female. But now your brand-new international 2014 list of 50 of the "best in the business" includes a whopping 3 women - 6% female! On this trajectory of 1% per decade, we can anticipate that 50% of acclaimed "best" designers will be female in only another 460 years!!
I'd buy the book to see whether other women are mentioned, but luckily I already have a job.
Best wishes,
Heidi
