Like many other feminists, Buker tries to debunk the notion that science tells the one true story about reality. Instead she asserts that science tells one story. Buker's book is not only ambitious, it is optimistic. I am most in agreement with her on the issue of feminist jurisprudence. One can point to concrete ways in which feminists have made a difference in our legal discourse.
Feminist science is more of a stretch.
I remain skeptical that this establishment will change its collective mind anytime soon and adopt the story metaphor. Buker's discussion of postmodern feminism raises other questions. The idea that postmodern feminism offers a way of constructing an ethical guide for daily life is one that few postmodern feminists, much less their critics, would accept. I doubt that the political actors at whom this advice is directed would accept it either. The argument that postmodern feminism is at once impenetrable and playful and, hence, inapplicable to politics, is difficult to refute.
