520 Referring to the focus of the biosciences on molecular
"particles" of the human biology-such as stem cells, genes,
and neurons-this account examines the relationships
between culture, society, and bioscientific research.
Showing that the atomized body is indeed socially and
culturally embedded, in plural and complex ways, it argues
that biomedicine and biotechnology do not only intersect
with the human body, but also reshape our perceptions of
selfhood and life. From a multidisciplinary perspective,
this volume explores the biosciences and the atomized body
in their social, cultural, and philosophical contexts
