I would also very much like to find out where and how biology is going with
female scientists.
As a graduate in Agroforestry we were taught that environmental sciences
that embrace the Gaia principle are but notions yet to be proven. Wholistic
theories are throwing some light on the subject, but it is the research that
is so fragmented.
Please can we have some enlightenment from feminist scientists who are
willing to take that step beyond.
