Blinded by Science: The Social Implications of Epigenetics and Neuroscience

David Wastell (University of Nottingham),Susan White (University of Sheffield)

This timely book critically examines the capabilities and limitations of the new areas of biology that are used as powerful arguments for developing social policy in a particular direction, exploring their implications for policy and practice. It will enable social scientists, policy makers, practitioners and interested general readers to understand how the new biologies of epigenetics and neuroscience have increasingly influenced the fields of family policy, mental health, child development and criminal justice
