Donna Haraway Science Geek Assignment 6

I found this article on Donna Haraway in The Washington University in St. Louis Newsroom. Web address follows. She happens to live a very interesting life. She is a internationally well known theorist and Historian besides being a scientist. What I thought was interesting additionally about her is that they describe her in so many different ways. "A History professor of the consciousness at the University of Calif was one. This article is dated today so I am glad I took another look...Anyways, a Historian of the consciousness, hmm?... Sounded pretty far out there if anyone had described me that way... Her lecture is on 2/24 if anyone wants to listen since it is free to the public at UC and is Titled: “21st Century Science Studies: Agents of Overlap in Biology and the Humanities.” She is sharing her lecture time with two other speakers and the article tells of the other lecturers but I just skimmed over that, if your interested there names are; William Wimsatt and and Carl Craver and with several others with PH.D's.

Anyways, Haraway teaches feminist theory and science studies which would be helpful for any women taking her class and listening to her lecture (maybe men too). Bless this women she went to Yale. She helps people deal with machines in the love / hate specialty. Have to laugh at that because I have wanted to drive over my laptop a couple of times myself... Maybe she could tell me why I have not done it yet (ha, ha). I should point out that the article states that she is the "leading thinker" in the lover-hater section with the machine world.

Her books sound pretty interesting, if you interested in biology and the study of primates, species, and the psychological effects of machines on humans.
I really liked this article because it covers a lot of what this women has accomplished. Its a good read and if your interested in attending it also give a phone number to call to make arrangements to attend the lecture. I have never imagined a women to be so much of everything that can be involved with the logical computers that we deal with on an everyday basis now. Not to say I feel that this is a man's world but they did start a lot that we have available in mechanics and science. I mean that Yes women are capable, but i.e. men built the clothes washing machine so that their women would have more time to do other things, besides spend more time doing laundry. (Thanks by the way!) Anyways, not to get off topic. I think it is important that Haraway has gone so far...out there in cyberspace.
