" . . . thoughtful critiques of the myriad issues between women and science." ―Belles Lettres
"Outstanding collection of essays that raise the fundamental questions of gender in what we have been taught are objective sciences." ―WATERwheel
" . . . all of the articles are well written, informative, and convincing. Admirable editorial work makes this anthology unusually helpful for scholars and students . . . Highly recommended . . . " ―Choice
Questioning the objectivity of scientific inquiry, this volume addresses the scope of gender bias in science. The contributors examine the ways in which science is affected by and reinforces sexist biases. The essays reveal science to be a cultural institution, structured by the political, social, and economic values of the culture within which it is practiced.

Store description
I started selling used books in 1985 in Davis, California, and online in 1998. I enjoy the process of using language to fully describe the advantages and blemishes of each book. Language can capture details that a photograph might miss, but if you are visually-oriented, I am happy to send a photo--please include your phone number, since it is easier to send a picture via text than email. I am of "mature" years, but will continue to sell books as long as I am able: I enjoy it too much! I am a mere temporary custodian, sending each book to its ultimate shelf--the one where it is appreciated the most.…
