About book : This book primarily deals with an odyssey of feminism from past to Cyborgian age, with reference to the works of Margaret Atwood. It depicts the transformation of a womanhood from stereotypical and passive woman exploited by a male-dominated society to a self-reliant woman. Donna Haraway's concept of the 'Cyborg' has served to explore the possibilities of the position of woman in contemporary society. Thus, in today's 'Cyborg' era, an attempt is made to find out about the ambition and attitude of woman.
