The discovery of the two inherited susceptibility genes BRCA1 and
BRCA2 in the mid-1990s created the possibility of predictive
genetic testing and led to the establishment of specific medical
programmes for those at high risk of developing breast cancer in
the UK, US and Europe. The book provides a coherent structure for
examining the diversity of practices and discourses that surround
developments linked to BRCA genetics, and to the evolving field of
genetics more broadly. It will be of interest to students and
scholars of anthropology, sociology, history of science, STS,
public health and bioethics. Chapter 8 of this book is freely
available as a downloadable Open Access PDF under a Creative
