It is a ground-breaking and original critical perspective on ARTs (Assisted Reproductive Technologies), using interview research, clinical case studies, psychoanalytic based ethnography, personal essay, clinical theory and cultural theory to examine these technologies. Included is current research in psychoanalysis, sociology, anthropology and philosophy and debates in critical cultural theory about affect, temporality, and bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eARTs are being used more and more frequently, yet psychoanalysis has not written about them critically or with clinical experiences. With psychoanalysis as its fulcrum, The Business of Being Made integrates cultural, queer, and feminist theories to explore social constructions and personal experiences of ARTs. Katie Gentile explores how ARTs have become a complex form of playing with time, attempting to manufacture a hopeful future in the midst of growing uncertainty. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Business of Being Made is full of original material and it will be relevant to clinicians, medical and psychological personnel working in assisted reproductive technologies and infertility, as well as academics working in the fields of sociology, literature, queer and feminist theories and at the intersections of cultural, critical and psychoanalytic theories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Katie Gentile\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415749409\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415749404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 266\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Katie Gentile","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064954925311,"sku":"9780415749404","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ecf23d74-03f7-48d3-a672-3a9007d51a44.jpg?v=1768672158","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-business-of-being-made-katie-gentile-9780415749404","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
