Postgenomics

"The volume is an accessible and insightful collection of critical and informed perspectives on how technological and theoretical developments influence science and society, and how they shape the ways we think about biological systems like ourselves." 

- Sara Green (Metascience)

"Postgenomics suggests just how many questions we may productively ask, and marks some highly fruitful lines of inquiry, as we seek to understand this new chapter in the ongoing interaction among genes, society, and ourselves."

- Robin Wolfe Scheffler (Bulletin of the History of Medicine)

"The authors convey exceptionally well the character of postgenomic science and how genomics has changed since the 1990s. . . . essential and very interesting reading for anyone interested in genomics and its recent trajectory."

- Peter Wade (Technology and Culture)

"This book not only analyzes the impact of numerous [genome-wide association studies] but also examines emerging research areas such as epigenetics in political, social, and philosophical contexts, in so doing redefining the information ecology of the genome. Highly recommended."

- S. H. Jeong (Choice)

"I recommend this book to all biologists and philosophers interested in an accessible overview of the effect of the genomic revolution on the biosciences. It capably discusses both the new discoveries and the technical improvements that have been made since the advent of genomics, as well as the attendant philosophical and sociological implications."

- P. William Hughes (Science)

"This book . . . should be widely read by all who are interested in the current state and future of the genomic revolution."

- Michael Yudell (Social History of Medicine)

"[Postgenomics] offers readers an imaginative and frequently playful way to approach the increasingly complicated question about how scientific innovation impacts society and vice versa."

- Adrianna Link (Journal of the History of Biology)
