          1. Gutted that I only had time to start reading this germinal work a day before it has to go back to the library. 😭 (And yes, anonymous previous borrower, I agree with all your underlines, at least in chapter 1….) davidjamesweir/1426143235601227778

          “[I]t is commitments to antiauthoritarian, antielitist, participatory and emancipatory values and projects that increase the value of science” 💯 (p26)

        On the origin myth of scientific culture: “Science’s self-image presents a myth about who ‘our kind’ of people are and about what destiny nature and scientific rationality hold in store for us.” (p36) Seriously, every (cis male) physicist should read this book.

      “These studies show why scientific work known to have been done by women is invisible to men (and to many women) even when it is objectively indistinguishable from men’s work.” (p64, ‘studies’ include Cole J.R. [1979]) Written nearly 35 years ago - as relevant today as ever 😡

    I got as far as chapter 3, but then it had to go back to the library, here it is travelling along the conveyor at oodihelsinki. Luckily I found a copy through Biblio at books_heron, as I think this is a topic I will be returning to a lot.
