520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Investigations into the genetic make-up of humans have transformed the way we think about ourselves and the world around us - most obviously it affects the way we think about health and disease but it also impacts on our ideas of what it is to be human. Genetics and the Social Sciences discusses the kinds of social, cultural and economic transformations that result from innovations in genomic knowledge and technologyThis pioneering collection uses Paul Rabinow's concept of biosociality to chart the shifts in social relations and in ideas about nature, biology and identity that brought about by developments in biomedicine. Based on new empirical research, it contains chapters on genomic research into embryonic stem cell therapy; breast cancer, autism, Parkinson's and IVF treatment, as well as on the expectations and education surrounding genomic research, and covers four main themes:? Novel modes of identity and identification, such as genetic citizenship.? The role of; institutions, ranging from disease advocacy organisations and voluntary organizations to the state.? The production of biological knowledge, novel life-forms, and technologies.? The generation of wealth and commercial interests in biology.Including an afterword by Paul Rabinow and case studies focusing on the UK, the US, Canada, Germany, India and Israel, Genetics and the Social Sciences will be of interest to students and researchers of the new genetics and the social sciences - particularly medical sociologists, medical anthropologists and those involved with science and technology studies."--Publisher description.
