false <![CDATA[She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg 431636 1 <i>She&#8217;s Such a Geek</i> is a groundbreaking anthology that celebrates women who have flourished in the male-dominated realms of technical and cultural arcana. Editors Annalee Newitz and Charlie Anders bring together a diverse range of critical and personal essays about the meaning of female nerdhood by women who are in love with genomics, obsessed with blogging, learned about sex from Dungeons and Dragons, and aren't afraid to match wits with men or computers. More than anything, <i>She's Such a Geek</i> is a celebration and call to arms: it's a hopeful book which looks forward to a day when women will invent molecular motors, design the next ultra-tiny supercomputer, and run the government. 420605 23 10 2006 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff total:80|5:19|4:32|3:22|2:6|1:1| 80 302 172 32 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 4 1 false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue Sep 25 12:02:53 -0700 2007 Sat Sep 29 16:22:21 -0700 2007 more...]]> 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 5 1 false Mon Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue Oct 16 12:42:58 -0700 2007 Tue Oct 16 12:45:15 -0700 2007 more...]]> 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 4 0 false Wed Nov 11 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 17:31:36 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 11 06:35:26 -0800 2009 more...]]> 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 3 1 false Sun Mar 02 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 27 07:28:00 -0800 2008 Sun Mar 16 11:25:05 -0700 2008 more...]]> 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 4 1 false Tue Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 21 06:37:05 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 28 06:52:46 -0700 2008 more...]]> 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 4 0 false Sun Jan 25 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 18 19:34:13 -0800 2009 Mon Jan 26 18:43:14 -0800 2009 more...]]> 431636 1580051901 9781580051903 80 32 She's Such a Geek: Women Write About Science, Technology, and Other Nerdy Stuff 3.77 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174695573m/431636.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/431636.She_s_Such_a_Geek_Women_Write_About_Science_Technology_and_Other_Nerdy_Stuff 3 0 false Mon Jan 19 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 14 18:09:38 -0800 2009 Sun Dec 13 10:44:27 -0800 2009
