Feminism and the Mastery of Nature draws on the feminist critique ofreason to argue that the master form of rationality of western culture has
been systematically unable to acknowledge dependency on nature, the
sphere of those it has defined as ‘inferior’ others. Because its knowledge
of the world is sytematically distorted by the elite domination which has
shaped it, the master rationality has developed ‘blind spots’ which may
threaten our survival. The future depends increasingly on our ability to
create a truly democratic and ecological culture beyond dualism.
