Ghosts in the Machine examines the complex relationships between
gender and information and communication technologies (ICT).
Written by women in four countries on three continents, it
discusses the educational, social, artistic, and political
implications of a feminine voice in the design of technology. The
research presented here explores the gendering of technology and,
in doing so, describes the Internet, computer games, computer-based
design and construction environments, and digital art from a
perspective that puts the social context in a key role. As the rate
of technology design continues to grow, it is imperative that books
such as this provide an alternate voice to the prevailing
descriptions of technology use. Ghosts in the Machine brings
women's voices out of the shadows to the forefront where they
belong.
