Theories and Methods -- II. Case Studies -- III. Social Implications. 330 $aThis handbook explores the ways biomedicine and pop culture interact while simultaneously introducing the reader with the tools and ideas behind this new field of enquiry. From comic books to health professionals, from the arts to genetics, from sci-fi to medical education, from TV series to ethics, it offers different entry points to an exciting and central aspect of contemporary culture: how and what we learn about (and from) scientific knowledge and its representation in pop culture. Divided into three sections the handbook surveys the basics, the micro-, and the macroaspects of this interaction between specialized knowledge and cultural production: After the introduction of basic concepts of and approaches to the topic from a variety of disciplines, the respective theories and methods are applied in specific case studies. The final section is concerned with larger social and historical trends of the use of biomedical knowledge in popular culture. Presenting over twenty-five original articles from international scholars with different disciplinary backgrounds, this handbook introduces the topic of pop culture and biomedicine to both new and mature researchers alike. The articles, all complete with a rich source of further references, are aimed at being a sincere entry point to researchers and academic educators interested in this somewhat unexplored field of culture and biomedicine. 606 $aSocial medicine 606 $aMedicine  606 $aHealth 606 $aBioethics 606 $aCivilization?History 606 $aCulture?Study and teaching 606 $aMedical Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22150 606 $aPopular Science in Medicine and Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q14008 606 $aBioethics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14010 606 $aCultural History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/723000 606 $aCultural and Media Studies, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/400000 615 0$aSocial medicine. 615 0$aMedicine . 615 0$aHealth. 615 0$aBioethics. 615 0$aCivilization?History. 615 0$aCulture?Study and teaching. 615 14$aMedical Sociology. 615 24$aPopular Science in Medicine and Health. 615 24$aBioethics. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aCultural and Media Studies, general. 676 $a306.461 702 $aGörgen$b Arno$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aNunez$b German Alfonso$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFangerau$b Heiner$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337734303321 996 $aHandbook of Popular Culture and Biomedicine$92527875 997 $aUNINA
