For more than a generation, scholarship on gender and/in science has been predominantly dedicated to two strands of discussion: while one prominent line of research has been concerned with women's inroads into science and their careers within its sys-tem, another branch of research has remained focused on the problem of how science, its content and its cultural practices, are coloured by gender. Despite this intriguing and differentiated research, `gender' has acquired the somewhat stable and taken-for-granted meaning of sexual difference. This volume proposes a reflection on the practices of establishing and using `gender' and its conceptual and practical history in the life of science, showing thus both the scope and the limitations of gendered ways of knowing.With contributions by: M. Cristina Amoretti and Nicla Vassallo, Marlen Bidwell-Steiner, Barbara Duden, Sandra Harding, Stefan Hirschauer, Stefanie Knauss, Annalisa Murgia, Teresa Rees, Catherine Vidal, Heidemarie Winkel, Theresa Wobbe.
