Once again, biology is foregrounded in the discussion of human identity. Of particular importance is the preoccupation with origins and personal discovery and the increasing use of racial and ethnic categories in social policy. This new genetic knowledge, expressed in technology and practice, has the potential to disrupt how race and ethnicity are debated, managed and lived. The contributors include medical researchers, anthropologists, historians of science and sociologists of race relations; together, they explore the new and challenging landscape where biology becomes the stuff of identity.Studies of the Biosocial SocietyMedical / GeneticsbisacshMedicineMedicalGeneticsMedical / GeneticsMedicineSchramm Katharinaedt923788Schramm KatharinaSkinner David1960-Rottenburg RichardKnowledge Unlatchedfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910433239803321Identity Politics and the New Genetics4162969UNINA
