"This quote from Count Zero by the very prescient William Gibson (@GreatDismal) keeps popping into my head...

"And, for an instant, she stared directly into those soft blue eyes and knew, with an instinctive mammalian certainty, that the exceedingly rich were no longer even remotely human."

reviewed The Real World of Technology by Ursula M. Franklin (CBC Massey lecture series)

feminism & pacifism meet technology & engineering

This is sheer delight and smarts. I wanted a feminist working out of how gender and society interact with technologies, and this is it. I'm so taken I'm actually thinking I might listen to the CBC's recordings of the original lectures as I try to work out how this might help me thinking about feminist bibliography.
