The "Racial" Economy of Science: Toward a Democratic FutureSandra Harding Indiana University Press, 22 окт. 1993 г. - Всего страниц: 544 "The classic and recent essays gathered here will challenge scholars in the natural sciences, philosophy, sociology, anthropology, and women's studies to examine the role of racism in the construction and application of the sciences.

She has assembled a bold, impressive collection of essays to make a volume of illuminating power.
