Abstract

How is feminism changing science? The author considers this to be a fundamental question when considering gender and science. She focuses on the effects that feminism has had on destabilizing traditional categories and classifications in several knowledge (study) areas. Such destabilization implies a strategy to reveal and enumerate some previously neglected aspects of science that question what kind of things we include and exclude in our knowledge of the world.
