- catalog abstract ""This collection of essays is the product of face-to-face dialogues among anthropologists, sociologists, and philosopher historians, all of whom focus their attention on newly created biomedical technologies and their application in practice. Drawing on ethnographic and historical case studies, the authors show how biomedical technologies are produced through the agencies of tools and techniques, scientists and doctors, funding bodies, patients, clients, and the public. Despite shared concerns, these essays reveal that the authors have achieved no consensus about the objectives of their research and deep epistemological divides remain."--Jacket.".
