A valuable and long overdue conversation demonstrating the theoretical insights afforded by engaging both feminist phenomenology and feminist technoscience studies to explore our ways of being in and with the world. " - Ericka Johnson, Professor of Gender and Society, Linköping University, Sweden
This very timely and essential collection sets out the case not just for bringing the two areas of inquiry feminist technoscience studies and critical phenomenology - into dialogue but for exposing their deep interdependence. Zeiler and Kll once again offer a rich resource that will be as engaging to postconventional philosophers as to those embracing highly empirical studies. With their scholarly but sensitive introductions to the contributions of each section, they skillfully guide the reader through three major areas subjectivities, embodiment and affectivity of lived experience to emphasise the need for an inherently interdisciplinary reading. - Margrit Shildrick, Guest Professor of Gender and Knowledge Production, Stockholm University, Sweden
In bringing together feminist theorising about embodied subjectivity through phenomenology, with critical perspectives about how bodies are situated within, and shaped by, material and discursive forces, this volume offers a range of engaging and provocative chapters that forge new theoretical ground in feminist scholarship. Considering the experience and formation of subjectivity within diverse topics, such as technology, pregnancy, prostheses, ageing and death, the essays in this book provide fascinating reflections about what it means to be a situated, relational, feeling and embodied subject in a world shaped by power, technology and artefacts. This volume will become essential reading in both feminist STS and feminist phenomenology, enriching theoretical methodologies in a range of debates and disciplinary approaches. - Luna Dolezal, Professor of Philosophy and Medical Humanities, University of Exeter, UK
