Life As Surplus: Biotechnology and Capitalism in the Neoliberal Era
"A book of topical timeliness and conceptual and political importance. Cooper reads two terms-biopolitics and neoliberalism-in exciting, exceptional ways, and provides an astute account of contemporary American political culture." Kaushik Sunder Rajan, author of Biocapital: The Constitution of Postgenomic Life [Duke University Press] ...it fills a knowledge gap in fields too many radicals usually ignore: biotechnology, tissue-engineering, stem cell research and AIDS...we would recommend this book to all radicals. - Mute Magazine, 21st October 2008
