Recenzii
"Emily Cox-Palmer-White's original synthesis of ideas drawn from Giorgio Agamben and Gilles Deleuze supplies a new way of thinking about the role of women in feminist SF, cinema and video games. She provides a convincing and thought-provoking contribution to feminist thought and popular cultural studies."
Dr Paul March-Russell, University of Kent, UK
"This is a sparkling and surprising debut book. Using the figure of the female robot or "gynoid", beloved of the sci-fi genre, to guide us through the contemporary landscape of gender politics, the author is able to make interventions into discussions of feminism, identity, and female being-in-the-world that are as fresh as they are pertinent."

Descriere
This work develops an innovative approach to gender and feminist theory by drawing together the work of key feminist and gender theorists, such as Judith Butler and Donna Haraway, and the biopolitical philosophy of Giorgio Agamben and Gilles Deleuze.
