Overview

Gender differences in the field of science and technology have real consequences for the quality of women's lives and for sustainable human development. In this book gender specialists from around the world probe topics ranging from indigenous knowledge, health and information to education, literacy and small business. They provide a valuable insight
into the failure of science and technology to answer women's needs and
the lack of women's power in this critical domain.
