If you feel inclined to go beyond gender, try exploring cyberspace. You could
pick your guides from Wired Women edited by Lynn Cherny and Elizabeth Reba Weise
(Seal, £12.99/$16, ISBN 1 878067 73 7). Contributors examine the
routes women have taken to find a place in the Internet, pointing out the
pitfalls (testosteronally-challenged culture dominates) and the pleasures
(freedom of expression, resources). Try “Women as roadkill on the information
superhighway” and “A thousand aunts with modems”.
