Honouring the multifaceted and nuanced experiences of sexual harassment by demonstrating how women anticipate, experience, react to and remember these incidents, Lewis attests that sexual harassment happens in a unique way in this often-neglected dimension of public space. How are these incidents located within gendered experiences in the city? How are acts of sexual harassment perpetrated? What key features define experiences of sexual harassment on public transport? How do these incidents impact women's mobilities over time?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten in the wake of the #MeToo movement, the Weinstein scandal, the global women's marches on Trump's inauguration day and a subsequent shift in public awareness and discourse, \u003cem\u003eMind the Gender Gap\u003c\/em\u003e compliments, challenges and furthers our understanding of sexual harassment in public spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSi?n Lewis\u003c\/strong\u003e is Lecturer in Criminology at the University of Plymouth, UK.
