Extract, but not install rpm

Is there a way to extract the contents of an rpm file (to, say, a temp
directory) without actually installing it?  I'd like to look at the
source code of a particular module driver that's bound up in the rpm,
but I don't want to install the kernel source -- probably wouldn't
work anyway since I'm working from a cygwin host right now.

Thanks,
Jay
