Can science, steeped in Western, masculine, bourgeois endeavors, nevertheless be used for emancipatory ends? In this major contribution to the debate over the role gender plays in the scientific enterprise, Sandra Harding pursues that question, challenging the intellectual and social foundations of scientific thought.Harding provides the first comprehensive and critical survey of the feminist science critiques, and examines inquiries into the androcentricism that has endured since the birth of modern science. Harding critiques three epistemological approaches: feminist empiricism, which identifies only bad science as the problem; the feminist standpoint, which holds that women's social experience provides a unique starting point for discovering masculine bias in science; and feminist postmodernism, which disputes the most basic scientific assumptions. She points out the tensions among these stances and the inadequate concepts that inform their analyses, yet maintains that the critical discourse they foster is vital to the quest for a science informed by emancipatory morals and politics.

Esta obra revisa, por primera vez desde el nacimiento de la ciencia moderna, las críticas feministas de la ciencia y las investigaciones realizadas con ópticas androcéntricas. Enmarcando el actual debate feminista, Sandra HARDING critica tres enfoques epistemoló el empirismo feminista, que sólo identifica como problema la mala ciencia; el punto de vista feminista, que sostiene que la experiencia social de las mujeres constituye el único punto de partida para descubrir el sesgo masculino de la ciencia; y el postmodernismo feminista, que discute los supuestos científicos más fundamentales. Señala las tensiones existentes entre estas posturas y los inadecuados conceptos que subyacen en sus análisis, aunque sostiene que el discurso crítico que favorecen es vital para la búsqueda de una ciencia informada por una moral y una política emancipadoras. La autora domina las perspectivas de las ciencias sociales y naturales más hegemónicas, e incorpora los puntos de vista de las bibliografías feministas, africanistas y postmodernas más recientes, para desvelar cómo el desarrollo de la ciencia incorpora valores y sesgos de los que es difícil ser conscientes. Asimismo, HARDING cuestiona los fundamentos intelectuales y sociales del pensamiento científico y se ocupa a fondo de las posibilidades de utilizar la ciencia con fines emancipadores, a pesar de estar inmersa en un entramado occidental, masculino y burgués. Ciencia y feminismo sintetiza y critica los supuestos de la filosofía de la ciencia hegemónica, contribuye a crear el fundamento de una ciencia basada en valores participativos y asume posiciones como el antirracismo, el anticlasismo y el antisexismo. Es la obra pionera que esperaban las personas interesadas por las teorías feministas, la filosofía y la historia de la ciencia.
