Bordering Biomedicine: At the Interface Probing the Boundaries, edited by Kalitzkus and Twohig, is an insightful exploration of the dynamic and often complex boundaries between biomedical science and other domains such as culture, society, and alternative medical practices. This work critically examines how biomedical knowledge is constructed, challenged, and negotiated at the borders of conventional medicine, addressing the interactions between biomedical institutions and patients, other health paradigms, and societal expectations. Through interdisciplinary perspectives, the book probes the tensions and collaborations that emerge at these interfaces, offering a nuanced understanding of the evolving landscape of health and medicine in contemporary society.
