The use of biologics – drugs made from living organisms – has raised specific scientific, industrial, medical and legal issues. The essays contained in this collection each deal with a case study of a biologic substance, or group of biologics, and its use during the twentieth century.
'the book is particularly interesting not just because of its insight into the history of its subject as seen from Germany, but also because it draws on German intellectual traditions of conceptual history ... Historians who did not know they were interested in biologics should take this book seriously.' Isis
