We understand mind reading in a broad sense as the twentieth-century attempt to generate knowledge of what people held in their minds ? with a focus on scientifically-based governmental practices. This volume considers the techniques of mind reading within a wider perspective of discussions about technological innovation within neuroscience, the juridical system, ?occult? practices and discourses within the wider field of parapsychology and magical beliefs. The authors address the practice of, and discourses on, mind reading as they form part of the consolidation of modern governmental techniques. The collected contributions explore the question of how these techniques have been epistemically formed, institutionalized, practiced, discussed, and how they have been used to shape forms of subjectivities ? collectively through human consciousness or individually through the criminal, deviant, or spiritual subject. The first part of this book focuses on the technologies and media of mind reading, while the second part addresses practices of mind reading as they have been used within the juridical sphere. The volume is of interest to a broad scholarly readership dealing with topics in interdisciplinary fields such as the history of science, history of knowledge, cultural studies, and techniques of subjectivization. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Science and Popular Culture,$x2731-4367 606 $aPopular culture 606 $aPopular Culture 615 0$aPopular culture. 615 14$aPopular Culture. 676 $a150 676 $a306 702 $aSchlicht$b Laurens$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aSeemann$b Carla$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aKassung$b Christian$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483340403321 996 $aMind Reading as a Cultural Practice$92851649 997 $aUNINA
