HAS FEMINISM CHANGED SCIENCE?

Book ID/图书代码: 06100013B61087

English Summary/英文概要: Do women do science differently? And how about feminists--male or female? The answer to this fraught question, carefully set out in this provocative book, will startle and enlighten every faction in the "science wars." Has Feminism Changed Science? is at once a history of women in science and a frank assessment of the role of gender in shaping scientific knowledge. Science is both a profession and a body of knowledge, and Londa Schiebinger looks at how women have fared and performed in both instances. She first considers the lives of women scientists, past and present: How many are there? What sciences do they choose--or have chosen for them? Is the professional culture of science gendered? And is there something uniquely feminine about the science women do? Schiebinger debunks the myth that women scientists--because they are women--are somehow more holistic and integrative and create more cooperative scientific communities. At the same time, she details the considerable practical difficulties that beset women in science, where domestic partnerships, children, and other demanding concerns can put women’s (and increasingly men’s) careers at risk. But what about the content of science, the heart of Schiebinger’s subject? Have feminist perspectives brought any positive changes to scientific knowledge? Schiebinger provides a subtle and nuanced gender analysis of the physical sciences, medicine, archaeology, evolutionary biology, primatology, and developmental biology. She also shows that feminist scientists have developed new theories, asked new questions, and opened new fields in many of these areas.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 女性科學家會用不同的方式研究科學嗎?那麼女性主義者呢?這個問題的答案很難確定,作者在此提出自己的一些觀點,在“科學戰爭中”啟發著讀者。

“女性主義改變了科學嗎?”討論了女性在學科史中的女性的地位以及科學知識形成過程中性別的評估。科學既是知識又是職業,Londa Schiebinger關注著女性在這兩個領域是如何發展的。她首先考慮了女性科學家的生活,過去和現在的生活。一共有多少女科學家,她們選擇研究怎樣的學科,她們適合研究的是哪些領域?專業科學文化是否會因為性別而不同?女性科學家的工作是否有女性主義的一面?Schiebinger揭露了女性科學家的秘密,作為女性,她們會更加關注整體、創造更多科學合作。同時,她也分析了女性在科學領域中將會面臨的困難,家庭伴侶、孩子和其他高要求的問題都會讓女科學家的工作陷入危機。 科學的內容是什麼?Schiebinger研究的核心主題的是什麼?女性主義的觀點為科學研究帶來什麼正面的影響嗎?Schiebinger提供了一種對物理、醫藥、考古學、物種進化學、靈長類動物學和發展植物學進行精密和細微的性別研究。她同樣揭示了女性主義科學家是如何發展新的理論,提出新的問題和開發新的領域的。(Celia)

About the Author/作者介绍: 隆達 席賓格教授是斯坦福大學歷史系科學歷史專業教授;歐美科學、醫藥、工程領域性別研究主任。2004-2010年席賓格教授是斯坦福大學克萊曼性別研究所的主任。在過去的20年裡,席賓格教授分析了性別科學領域裡的三個相互關聯又不相同的主題:女性參與科學研究的歷史,科研機構的結構和人類知識產生的性別區別。

隆達 席賓格教授在聯合國2010年在巴黎展開的性別、科學和技術專家組會議上發表了主旨演講並寫了背景概念論文。她2011年2月于紐約向聯合國發表了自己的研究發現。2011年3月聯合國決議呼籲“科技領域的性別研究”以及“科技領域中性別方面”研究的整合。 她和歐洲委員會共同合作過幾個領域、2011年1月她進入歐盟性別創新研究項目組,此項目已經吸引了來自美國和歐洲27各國家專家的力量。

Londa Schiebinger is the John L. Hinds Professor of History of Science in the History Department at Stanford University and Director of the EU/US Gendered Innovations in Science, Medicine, and Engineering Project. From 2004-2010, Schiebinger served as the Director of Stanford’s Clayman Institute for Gender Research. Over the past twenty years, Schiebinger’s work has been devoted to teasing apart three analytically distinct but interlocking pieces of the gender and science puzzle: the history of women’s participation in science; the structure of scientific institutions; and the gendering of human knowledge.

Londa Schiebinger presented the keynote address and wrote the conceptual background paper for the United Nations’ Expert Group Meeting on Gender, Science, and Technology, September 2010 in Paris. She presented the finding at the United Nations in New York, February 2011. The UN Resolutions of March 2011 call for "gender-based analysis ... in science and technology" and for the integrations of a "gender perspective in science and technology curricula."

She has worked with the European Commission on a number of projects. January 2011 she entered into a major collaboration with the European Union for her Gendered Innovations project. In addition to drawing experts from across the US, this project now has access to experts from the EU 27 member states.
