"This is an interesting and substantial book. Joining in the debate...on the question of empiricism and its usefulness for feminist science criticism, Nelson offers a way of dealing with the problems of empiricism.... Her accounts of the inadequacies of positivism (Hemple, Nagel) and Kuhnian theory; her careful positioning of her theory in relation to other feminist work; and her lucid exposition throughout...all make this a valuable course book."
—Women in Philosophy Newsletter
"Scholarly and readable, Who Knows is addressed to feminists, scientists, philosophers of science." ... A useful introduction to philosophy of science for feminists and to feminist science criticism for philosophers and scientists."
—Teaching Philosophy
"I welcome this book, both scholarly and readable, which takes up the matter of feminism and empiricism directly and in a new way, privileging Quine, not Kuhn, as representative of post-positivistic philosophy of science. The turning of feminist attention to Quine is timely, if not indeed overdue."
Marilyn Frye, Michigan State University
