The contributors to this innovative volume consider the new visual technologies which make the human body into a virtual territory; popular representations of genetics and identity; the diagnostic and medical practices centered around women's bodies, and debates about 'feminist science studies'. They engage with scientific phenomena and controversies such as the Visible Human Project; the supposed existence of a 'gay gene'; cosmetic surgery; breast cancer media activism; HIV testing, and abortion. Contributors include: Anne Balsamo, Lisa Cartwright, Kathy Davis, Janine Marchessault, Kim Sawchuk, Jennifer Daryl Slack, Catherine Waldby
