Avoiding jargon and using well-chosen illustrations, Technology and Women's Voices assesses technological changes in terms of their impact on women's social lives. The contributors investigate women's talk as part of the technological environment in which it occurs, and argue that technology has made a lasting impact on women's communications. The articles trace the operations of several specific innovations - including electricity, the telephone, washing machine, car, sewing machine and computer.
Cheris Kramarae is Professor of Speech Communication, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where she teaches courses in interpersonal communication, feminist theory and sociolinguistics. She is the author of over 30 articles on language and gender, and author, editor or co-editor of seven books on communication and feminist theory, including A Feminist Dictionary (Pandora Press, 1986), Language and Power (Sage, 1984), Language, Gender and Society (Newbury House, 1983), The Voices and Words of Women and Men (Pergamon Press, 1980) and Women and Men Speaking (Newbury House, 1981).
