The Cyborg and the Kitchen Sink; or, The Salvation Story of No Salvation Story

Csicsery-Ronay, Istvan, Jr. "The Cyborg and the Kitchen Sink; or, The Salvation Story of No Salvation Story." SFS #76, 25.3 (November 1998): 510-525.

Discusses and critiques Haraway's Modest_Witness@Second_Millenium.FemaleMan-Meets_OncoMouse in light of her previous, highly influential work, "Manifesto for Cyborgs." MW takes Haraway's cyborg anthropology directly into these two dominant prosthetic systems of postmodernism: the Internet and the Human Genome Project. IC-R's essay available at [www.depauw.edu/sfs/reviews_pages/r76.htm#icr]. See for the astute IC-R taking on a major work.
