[Air-l] sources on gendering of technology?

[NANCY MCDONALD-KNWRTHY]

You might also want to check what Cornelia Brunner has been doing in her 30-yr research in gender and technology:  http://cct.edc.org/indv_staff.asp?numStaffId=14

I just finished a reading of hers: "The feminization of technology" (2002) in Ghosts in the machine: women's voices in research with technology, Yellin and Andee Robin, eds., (pp 71-96). NY: Peter Lang.
