5. MelmanBillie Borderlines: genders and identities in war and peace 1870-1930 RoutledgeNew York1998has nicely identified the major themes in feminist studies of women and war, and the historical shifts between them.

Feminist studies of technology offer some theoretical tools through which to bring a broad interdisciplinary focus to streams of scholarship that have so far remained separate. See Nina E.
