  Moya Review
For Moya, objectivity is “an ideal of inquiry necessarily involving theoretical bias and interest” (14); it is this “theory-mediated objective knowledge” produced precisely by particular types of experience that she proposes to consider.
While the theoretical component is central to her work, Moya also explores at length the practical or political aspects of identity and experience, especially in her incisive discussion of contemporary neoconservative perspectives on assimilation and in her proposal for a particular type of multicultural education.
Moya suggests that while in and of itself experience may not be epistemically sufficient, it is epistemically indispensable for explaining particular social relations.

 Carlos Moyà - he's a lover, not a fighter
Moya was neither the most successful nor the most driven of juniors, and he might easily have wound up a recreational player like his older siblings Andres, 30, and Begona, 31.
Moya has an artistic tennis sensibility that is expressed most clearly by his free left hand as he strikes a forehand or a slice backhand: His fingers are splayed in a slightly different fashion on every ball, as if attempting to apply just the right amount of body English to the shot.
Moya explodes upward and virtually engulfs the ball, which snaps off his racquet with an audible "click." It is the stroke that best illustrates the differences between Moya and the other Spaniards: Whereas their conservative deliveries are strategic weapons, Moya's is preemptive.
