From the Back Cover

Law interacts with society and the material world in various ways, with science and technology increasingly at the heart of these interactions. Contemporary scholarship reveals how interactions of law and science co-produce the worlds we live in, and the hidden ways in which law operates.

Material Worlds: Intersections of Law, Science, Technology, and Society highlights the growing body of research showing current directions of the engagement between Socio-legal Studies (SLS) and Science and Technology Studies (STS). The book's empirical studies help us understand how law and technology shape crucial contemporary experiences - climate change, crime detection, biomedical technology, genetics, and more.

The intersection between law and materiality is a particularly fruitful meeting-point, and this study of the existing and future research across these disciplines will lead to a better understanding of both.

Christopher Lawless is a sociologist with a background in biochemical sciences. His research interests include the sociological study of science and technology, transport security and safety, and forensic science.

Alex Faulkner is a sociologist of biomedicine, medical technology and healthcare. He has published extensively on innovation and regulation of new medical technologies and is currently studying the governance of adoption of innovative medical technologies in healthcare systems.
