Manifestly Haraway

by Donna J. Haraway, Cary Wolfe ...

Series series Posthumanities
Electrifying, provocative, and controversial when first published thirty years ago, Donna Haraway’s “Cyborg Manifesto” is even more relevant today, when the divisions that she so eloquently challenges—of human and machine but also of gender, class, race, ethnicity, sexuality, and location—are increasingly complex. The subsequent “Companion Species Manifesto,” which further questions the human ... Read more

by Donna J. Haraway ...

Simians, Cyborgs and Women is a powerful collection of ten essays written between 1978 and 1989.
