Acknowledgments<br />

I would to first thank Donna Haraway, my mentor. She is an inspiration. I<br />

would also like to sincerely thank the other members of my dissertation<br />

committee: Barbara Epstein, Terry Winograd, and Bruce Larkin, for their<br />

support and advice. Billie Harris, the administrator of the History of Consciousness<br />

Board during my time there, was an invaluable help, a steadfast<br />

supporter, and a good friend. Everyone at HistCon deserves thanks. It is a<br />

unique, wonder-filled program and a weird but real community. But I would<br />

especially like to mention Hayden White, Jim Clifford, and my good friends<br />

Zoe Sofia, Paul Ed<strong>war</strong>ds, Sharon Helsel, Noel Sturgeon, Sarah Williams, and<br />

Ron Eglash. Everyone in our Cultural Studies of Science and Technology<br />

Research Group has been helpful, thoughtful, and amusing, especially Mark<br />

Driscoll<br />

I owe a great deal to the faculty and students I've worked with at the<br />

University of California, Santa Cruz, and in other places as distant as<br />

Moscow, but I don't have space to name them all here. I also must thank the<br />

Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation of the University of California<br />

at San Diego, the Universitiy of California Regents, the Eisenhower Fellowships,<br />

and the Smithsonian Institution for funding support. Paul Ceruzzi of<br />

the Smithsonian was a kind and gracious host during my summer there. James<br />

Der Derian as a commentator and Les Levidow, an editor, helped me improve<br />

this book a great deal, as did Hugh Gusterson, a fine friend and a fine reader.<br />

Of course all errors are my responsibility.<br />

Finally, I could not have done this work without my friends and<br />

family. Jane, Corey, Zachary, Mary <strong>Hables</strong>, the Wilsons, the <strong>Gray</strong>s, and all<br />

my companeros, you know who you are, thank you!
