Summary:

Donna Haraway's work has transformed the fields of cyberculture, feminist studies, and the history of science and technology. Her subjects range from animal dioramas in the American Museum of Natural History to research in transgenic mice, from gender in the laboratory to the nature of the cyborg. Trained as a historian of science, she has produced a series of books and essays that have become essential reading. Bringing together a generous selection of her writings, including her "Manifesto for Cyborgs," The Haraway Reader is the best single introduction to Donna Haraway's thought.
