WOMEN AND SCIENCE: ISSUES AND RESOURCES
Part I: A Selective Reading List
This bibliography emphasizes books and special journal issues
that present a feminist critique of scientific theory and
practice in the past and present. Wherever possible, the
contents of special issues and anthologies are listed. The
bibliography also cites many journal articles, several
representative biographies, reports of model courses or
curricula, and works about the lives and status of women
scientists. Occupational guidance materials and curricula for
the K-12 classroom are generally not cited. For further
research guidance, consult the reference sources highlighted in
Part II.
