HYBRIDITY --EPILOGUE: CELLS THEN AND NOW --NOTES --INDEXHow did cells make the journey from their origin in living bodies to something that can be grown and manipulated on artificial media in the laboratory? This is the question at the heart of Hannah Landecker's book. She shows how cell culture changed the way we think about such central questions of the human condition as individuality, hybridity, and even immortality and asks what it means that we can remove cells from the spatial constraints of the body and "harness them to human intention."ACLS Fellows' publications.Cell cultureTissue cultureBiotechnologyCell culture.Tissue culture.Biotechnology.571.6/38Landecker Hannah1021022MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778015803321Culturing life2417800UNINA
