Searching for Scientific Womanpower - Laura Micheletti Puaca - Bog

This history of what Laura Micheletti Puaca terms ""technocratic feminism"" traces contemporary feminist interest in science to the World War II and early Cold War years. Drawing on an array of archival collections and primary sources, Puaca brings to light the untold story of an important but largely overlooked strand of feminist activism. This book reveals much about the history of American feminism, the politics of national security, and the relationship between the two.
