Zustand: As New. Like new condition. Dust jacket. No interior marks. Insight and Industry examines the "careers" of four major technologies that have reshaped medicine by allowing new forms of insight into the human interior. Blume's studies of ultrasound, thermography, computerized tomography, and nuclear magnetic resonance reveal the many ways in which manufacturers, medical personnel, and patients affect both the form and the use of innovative technologies. Blume explores alternative models for analyzing the process of technological development and diffusion. He then uses the general model he has constructed to guide the four case studies, showing in particular how and why each new vision developed or did not develop an audience and support group. A concluding chapter builds on the four studies and examines the possibility of actively shaping the process of future technological development in medicine. Insight and Industry is valuable both as a straightforward comparative study of the four diagnostic imaging techniques and as a significant contribution to the literature on technology and innovation. Blume's interpretive framework allows us to explore important questions such as what factors are implicated in the process of the technologization of medicine, why new technology in medicine so often seems to mean more rather than less expensive treatment, how technologies become specific to certain applications, why we have some technologies and not others, and how processes of technological innovation in medicine may differ from those in other areas of social practices.…

In the 1980s and 1990s disabled scholars in the West began to develop a radical critique of biomedical conceptions of disability that focused exclusively on the individual body and its limitations. They also exposed the failure of the social sciences to critically address what this medical understanding of disability meant and what it excluded from consideration. Out of their work emerged what is generally called the Social model of disability. Over the past twenty years this perspective has generated a substantial literature much of it making use of the methods of qualitative social research. Narrative and life histories produced by disabled people themselves have a central place in the Disability Studies literature. This work has major implications for professionals in the rehabilitation field for the social sciences and the ultimate goal for the full integration of disabled people into society. However almost all of it focuses on the traditions practices and dilemmas of northern countries. In India in Thailand and in most of Asia the field of disability continues to be dominated by the biomedical model. Thus disability is understood as an incurable chronic illness and increasingly an object for medical diagnosis and investigation. Despite many positive developments little convergence between disability politics and practice on the one hand and sociology and anthropology on the other has taken place. Surveying the international literature on disability and rehabilitation it becomes apparent that many studies carried out in Asian countries are designed to measure the extent of (unmet) need or the impact of services or attitudes to disabled people. Virtually no studies make use of the innovative usually qualitative and often holistic approaches developed in Western countries over the past twenty years. This book introduces readers in Asian countr.…
