An adjective for "exclusion" to show that it is very extensive and vast?

The Islamic tradition shows the _____ exclusion of women from scientific field.

I mean to say that there has been almost no woman in that tradition in the field of science. What adjective should I use for "exclusion"? My own suggestions are "vast", "wide", and "extended". What would be an idiomatic adjective for exclusion in that context?


The title jumps out at one here:

The Making of Modern Science
Science, Technology, Medicine and Modernity: 1789 to 1914

By David Knight

"But in general the widespread exclusion of women from science was no accident: it was man's work."

This refers to the West in earlier times (until World War I) but would apply today to the "Islamic tradition" which still lags behind...

A Google NGram search for *_ADJ exclusion of shows that total and complete are the most popular options, though they might be too strict for this case: they suggest a 100% exclusion. My choice for the 99% version would be almost complete.

Also, you might consider promotes or encourages instead of "shows".
