Sexual Visions (C) (Science and Literature) - Hardcover

Reseña del editor

Noticeably deficient in the gratification of prurient interests. Jordonova (history, U. of Essex) argues that the concern of biological and medical sciences with such oppositions as male/female, reason/emotion, and science/nature, mediated the overall culture's preoccupation with sex roles and gender distinctions. A powerful and erudite contribution to the history and philosophy of science and the fields of women's studies, biology, art history and cultural studies. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
