Sommario/riassunto

The deciphering of the genome and, last but not least, the development of modern sequencing methods make many people fear that their "individuality" could be lost as a result. What this means exactly, what the individual's self-image is based on and to what extent the concern is justified is examined in this volume in the interdisciplinary discourse between human genetics and law. The contributions result from an interdisciplinary workshop of the Göttingen Institute for Human Genetics in cooperation with the Center for Medical Law in January 2012. Additional contributions from both a human genetic and a legal perspective broaden the factual basis and provide a deeper insight into the current state of affairs.

Sommario/riassunto

The Lonely Crowd is considered by many to be the most influential book of the twentieth century. Its now-classic analysis of the "new middle class" in terms of inner-directed and other-directed social character opened exciting new dimensions in our understanding of the psychological, political, and economic problems that confront the individual in contemporary American society. The 1969 abridged and revised edition of the book is now reissued with a new foreword by Todd Gitlin that explains why the book is still relevant to our own era."As accessible as it is acute, The Lonely Crowd is indispensable reading for anyone who wishes to understand American society. After half a century, this book has lost none of its capacity to make sense of how we live."-Todd GitlinPraise for the earlier editions:"One of the most penetrating and comprehensive views of the twentieth-century urban American you're likely to find."-Commonweal"Brilliant and original."-Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
