Questioning essentialist forms of feminist discourse, this work
develops an innovative approach to gender and feminist theory by
drawing together the work of key feminist and gender theorists,
such as Judith Butler and Donna Haraway, and the biopolitical
philosophy of Giorgio Agamben and Gilles Deleuze. By analysing
representations of the female cyborg figure, the gynoid, in science
fiction literature, television, film and videogames, the work
acknowledges its normative and subversive properties while also
calling for a new feminist politics of selfhood and autonomy
implied by the posthuman qualities of the female machine.
