This book explores the role of social and epistemic diversity in
science, technology, and medicine in the 21st century. It argues
that most contemporary endeavours to democratize science are
epistemically conservative. Using illustrative case studies, Dr
Dana Mahr shows how epistemic diversity can contribute to a renewal
of the production of scientific knowledge. Her exploration of
online self-help cultures, radical feminist health movements, and
grassroots environmentalism in Thailand emphasize that
"experiential knowledge" and "performativity" are important
epistemic strategies for marginalized social groups to critically
engage with institutionalized knowledge.
