Theoretical introduction -- pt. 2. Case studies of biopolicy.Biology can inform public policy in a number of ways. This volume explores the linkage of the life sciences with policy (what the book refers to as biopolicy). It features two points of departure: the implications of the neurosciences for public policy; and the implications of evolutionary theory for policy-making. The first part of the book provides an introduction to the subject of biopolicy as well as the relevance of the brain sciences and evolutionary theory for this subject. The second part considers several case studies of how these points of departure inform our knowledge of policy.Research in biopolitics ;v. 10.BiopoliticsLife sciencesGovernment policyElectronic books.Biopolitics.Life sciencesGovernment policy.570.1Somit Albert855229Peterson Steven A855228MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462064203321Biopolicy2233904UNINA
