With a roster of esteemed senior scholars contributing to its content, there is a strong expectation that this book will find its way into the syllabi of numerous other universities.
The study of Science and Technology Studies (STS) and the historical and sociological examination of science and technology have established themselves as relatively stable pillars in many universities across the globe. Interestingly, this field has also made its mark in Chinese higher education, becoming an official part of the curriculum. The book serves as a remarkable bridge between Science and Technology Studies and the latest discussions within Feminist New Materialism(s).
By bringing together a diverse range of perspectives and insights, this volume offers a comprehensive and interdisciplinary exploration of the complex relationships between science, technology, and gender. It provides a valuable resource for scholars, students, and policymakers alike, contributing to the ongoing dialogue and advancement of knowledge in this critical area.

It serves as a catalyst for further research and discussion, fostering a deeper understanding of the ways in which science, technology, and society interact and shape one another.
In conclusion, the volume is a groundbreaking achievement that showcases the power of interdisciplinary collaboration and the potential for scholarly discourse to drive positive change. It is a testament to the enduring relevance of STS and the critical role it plays in shaping our understanding of the world around us. We eagerly anticipate its impact on the field and the broader academic community.
