Abstract

After multiple centuries of intensive research on the gendering of technology (in development and use) and on the natural sciences, it is time to take stock in order to sound out current perspectives and necessary courses of action for the future. This volume presents very strong articles on special areas that provide access to gender-sensitive technological and scientific critique and that will then also make possible future research projects in the individual disciplines. Admittedly, the subtitle of the volume misses the mark, as a survey (in the sense of a evaluative overview) does not take place.
