- Description
- The book brings together women's cyberfiction - fiction that explores the relationship between people and virtual technologies - and feminist theoretical and critical investigations of gender and technoculture. From a variety of viewpoints, the writers consider the effects of rapid and profound technological change on culture - in particular, both the revolutionary and reactionary effects of cyberculture on women's lives. They also explore the feminist implications of the cyborg, a human-machine hybrid.
