520    Ask practically any academic department chair why they do 
       not have more African Americans among faculty members and 
       they generally respond with stock stories or folktales, 
       which stimulated the title of this volume. Stock stories 
       are akin to grand narratives that explain 'why things are'
       in ways that satisfy those in dominant positions. Frierson
       and Tate argue it is time to move beyond these. The 
       purpose of the book is to provide historical, conceptual, 
       and empirically-based analyses focused on the development 
       of African Americans in STEM fields. There is rarely any 
       real understanding of the uneven contours of the education
       pipeline or the transition to academic life experienced in
       these situations and this volume will shed light on 
       opportunities to advance African American attainment in 
       STEM disciplines throughout the academic and professional 
       spectra, and the mitigation of disparities that continue 
       to be so prevalent. The editors hope that it will generate
       discussions and actions that are based on empirical 
       evidence and policy analyses, rather than long standing 
       stock stories and folktales that misrepresent the paths 
       linked to African Americans attainment in STEM fields.
