The second decade of the twenty-first century has | |
witnessed a surging interest in personalized medicine | |
with the concomitant promise to enable more precise | |
diagnosis and treatment of disease and illness, based | |
upon an individual s unique genetic makeup. In this book, | |
my goal is to contribute to a growing body of literature | |
on personalized medicine by tracing and analyzing how | |
this field has blossomed in Asia. In so doing, I aim to | |
illustrate how various social and economic forces shape | |
the co-production of science and social order in global | |
contexts. This book shows that there are inextricable | |
transnational linkages between developing and developed | |
countries and also provides a theoretically guided and | |
empirically grounded understanding of the formation and | |
usage of particular racial and ethnic human taxonomies in | |
local, national and transnational settings. | |
