The Gendered Atom: Reflections on the Sexual Psychology of Science

Misogyny is, unfortunately, nothing new, and heavily prevalent in almost every workplace. While science has always been seen as the pinnacle of unbiased fact, this book presents a daring new look at this field - arguing that science has been a maelstrom of sexual and gender based prejudices that has deeply affected bias and fact to this day. This unique book dives into this history head first, laying plain how unconscious gender bias and assumptions about our natural world affect us to this day, while also looking into what a gender-free science looks like and how it can help us find out more about the complexities of the construction of our natural world.
