Little Dawkins footnote. The book which he relies on for his knowledge of academic feminism - and how it supposedly rejects science, math, and logic as hopelessly sexist - Professing Feminism - is based on thirty anonymous interviews, which were then generalised to the entire field. The book, just one of numerous successful backlash publications in the nineties, became a handy tool for attacking all women's studies and all feminism based on the disgruntlings of a few.
