Abstract "This interdisciplinary anthology examines the relationship between biomedical advancement and both artistic and literary innovation, focussing in particular on how newfound molecular technologies and knowledge regimes, such as CRISPR-Cas 9 genome editing, alter conceptions of what it means to be human. The book presents 25 essays, split across five parts, from a coterie of artists, scientists, and theorists, which examine the symbiotic relationship between humans, animals, and viruses as well as the impossibility of germ-free existence, it is essential reading for students and researchers focussing on focusing on science and art, environmental humanities, ethics"-- Provided by publisher.
