Women, Science and Technology: A Feminist Reader
Editorial Reviews
Review
Wayne...unusual and truly multidisciplinary collection of articles, held together by the contention that scientific research both contributes to reproducing inequalities based on gender and to documenting and challenging them. ... The intellectual level of the articles is uniformly high, and each article has its own bibliography. No comparable volume exists: it is a welcome addition to the field of feminist science studies..
-Choice, November 2001, M.H. Chaplin
Aimed at an introductory-level audience that is not expected to be familiar with science studies, the anthology can also be a vital tool for even the most seasoned researcher...The interweaving of personal anecdotes with research-oriented studies provides a rich context from which to view the experiences and roles of women in the sciences...for students, educators, researchers, and popular audiences.
