Feminist Science Fiction and Feminist Epistemology: Four Modes - Studies in Global Science Fiction
Ritch Calvin
This book argues that feminist science fiction shares the same concerns as feminist epistemology—challenges to the sex of the knower, the valuation of the abstract over the concrete, the dismissal of the physical, the focus on rationality and reason, the devaluation of embodied knowledge, and the containment of (some) bodies.
