Description
Book SynopsisA new approach to knowledge and to aspects of knowing
Trade Review"There is no other existing book that does exactly what Hekman does here, which is work across a very broad and diverse range of fields and figures to draw together the best of what's out there rethinking the relationship between the material and the linguistic." —Shannon Sullivan, Penn State University
"This is a truly feminist book in the best sense; it does not simply adopt, or abandon, paradigms but engages with what's worth saving. It is a genuinely new way of thinking about the relation between matter and science." —Claire Colebrook, University of Edinburgh
