Once & Future Feminist

What can technology do for feminism?

Almost fifty years ago, Shulamith Firestone imagined it could liberate women from the work of reproduction--so long as it was conceived as part of a cultural revolution. This collection casts a critical eye on the promises and the perils, asking not just whether an emancipatory feminism is possible today, but also what it might look like.
