5.0 out of 5 stars
A zippy and insightful introduction to issues of women in science,
This review is from: Women, Science and Technology: A Reader in Feminist Science Studies (Kindle Edition)
A book about women in science that describes how vibrators were marketed in the 1920s? Why not? This "reader" includes short original documents, with discussion about how they fit into a wider view of women's studies. One of my favorites (and original to the book) is the odd coincidence of ads in publications like "Science" and "Nature" have the text "easy" and "cheap" if they show a woman in the ad photo.The texts in this book served as the basis for a lively reading group at my university and I highly recommend it. Really, we laughed, we argued and we left different people. |
