The question of gender in science and technology is pursued by
scholars from different disciplines and perspectives: historians
study the lives of women scientists within the context of
institutions that for centuries held women at arm's length;
sociologists uncover women's access to the means of scientific
production; biologists scrutinize how science has studied female
and male bodies; cultural critics explore normative understandings
of femininity and masculinity; philosophers and historians of
science analyse how gender has influenced the content and methods
of science and technology. Now, this new four-volume collection
from Routledge enables users to make sense of the interlocking
pieces of the gender, science, and technology puzzle: the history
of women's participation in science and engineering; the structure
of research institutions; and the gendering of human knowledge. The
volumes bring together important representative publications
treating these issues from antiquity to the present, and across
cultures.
