Rezension zu „Hawking Incorporated - Stephen Hawking and the Anthropology of the Knowing Subject “
"From a disability studies perspective, "Hawking Incorporated" serves as a superb case study for examining the ordinary practices that maintain disability as an undertheorized phenomenon. Disability, depicted by Mialet as a forceful provocation, puts the reader on the path to witness how various competencies are enabled by an able-ist network of power and knowledge. Moreover, this book is an excellent addition to science and technology studies; anthropology of the knowing subject; sociology of work; and, of course, a must-read for those interested in thinking critically about Stephen Hawking."--Tanya Titchkosky, University of Toronto "Disability & Society "
