註釋
"This book is is an innovative analysis of images of science and technology from popular films of the 1980's and 1990's. It argues that films as diverse as the science fiction film Jurassic Park, the melodrama Lorenzo's Oil and the Gremlin comic fantasies contribute to popular understandings of science and technology. Introducing ideas from technoscience studies, the author shows that films such as Twelve Monkeys, Lawnmower Man, and Strange Days explore the complex social, cultural, and economic intersections that lead to the generation of scientific knowledge, and the different ways that such knowledge emerges within the world".--Back cover.
