This book identifies a significant new phase in the novel’s aesthetic exploration of life and demonstrates that the novel emerges as the cultural form uniquely positioned to engage both the imaginative and concrete challenges raised by genetic science for the lifeworlds of the new millennium.

Kritisches Denken
Kritisches Denken ist ein zentrales Werkzeug geisteswissenschaftlichen Arbeitens.
