{"product_id":"the-postcolonial-science-and-technology-studies-reader-9780822349570","title":"The Postcolonial Science and Technology Studies Reader","description":"For twenty years, the renowned philosopher of science Sandra Harding has argued that science and technology studies, postcolonial studies, and feminist critique must inform one another. In \u003ci\u003eThe Postcolonial Science and Technology Studies Reader\u003c\/i\u003e, Harding puts those fields in critical conversation, assembling the anthology that she has long wanted for classroom use. In classic and recent essays, international scholars from a range of disciplines think through a broad array of science and technology philosophies and practices. The contributors reevaluate conventional accounts of the West's scientific and technological projects in the past and present, rethink the strengths and limitations of non-Western societies' knowledge traditions, and assess the legacies of colonialism and imperialism. The collection concludes with forward-looking essays, which explore strategies for cultivating new visions of a multicultural, democratic world of sciences and for turning those visions into realities. Feminist science and technology concerns run throughout the reader and are the focus of several essays. Harding provides helpful background for each essay in her introductions to the reader's four sections.\u003cp\u003eContributors\u003cbr\u003eHelen Appleton\u003cbr\u003eKaren B ckstrand\u003cbr\u003eLucille H.
