This volume addresses the need for sociological insight through empirically rich, theoretically innovative chapters that range across methods, traditions and foci in order to cast new light on the place, role and impact of neuroscience.
This is a fruitful gathering of sociological and anthropological perspectives on developments in the brain sciences. Not only does the social world of brain scientists come alive in these chapters, but we also learn a lot about patients and families who struggle with various disabilities and disorders. It is particularly gratifying to see newer scholars contributing to an area that should become a core interest for social scientists.' Ilina Singh, Co-Editor, BioSocieties
