About this product

Product Information

New technologies and the science that created them have transformedour lives, posing challenges as to how technological change can bebetter integrated in society. Recognition of these issues has ledto different ways of engaging the public in the assessment andregulation of emerging technologies. However, there has been no singleapproach that characterizes the relationship between publics and newtechnologies. This book puts the subject of publics and their engagement inemerging technologies on a robust theoretical footing. With a strong,though not exclusive, focus on genomic technologies, leading theoristsand practitioners in the field provide precise and clear insights intothe key issues in public participation studies, including ethics,process, and principles of knowledge distribution in democraticsocieties. The discussion is particularly pertinent and central tocurrent concerns in health, technology, and public participation at atime when the reform of public and private sector health and socialcare services are being debated globally.
