Philosophy of Science After Feminism Kourany Janet A.
In this monograph Janet A. The central questions feminist scientists, philosophers, and historians have been raising about science during the last three decades form Kourany's point of departure and her response to these questions builds on their insights. Kourany argues for a philosophy of science more socially engaged and socially responsible than the philosophy of science we have now.
Kourany develops her particular response, dubbed by her the ideal of socially responsible science, beyond the This way of approaching science differs from mainstream philosophy of science in two crucial respects: it locates science within its wider societal context rather than treating science as if it existed in a social, political, and economic vacuum; and it points the way to a more comprehensive understanding of scientific rationality, one that integrates the ethical with the epistemic.
