Considering television's distinct aesthetic and narrative forms, as well as its specific cultural roles, it identifies TV as a key site for the genetic imaginary. The book addresses the key themes of complexity and kinship, which function as nodes around which older essentialist notions about the human genome clash with newly emergent post-genomic sensibilities. Analysing a wide range of US and UK programmes, from science documentaries, science fiction serials and crime procedurals, to family history programmes, sitcoms and reality shows, Television and the Genetic Imaginary illustrates the extent to which molecular frameworks of understanding now permeate popular culture. 000890792 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed June 5, 2019). 000890792 650_0 $$aScience on television. 000890792 650_0 $$aMedicine on television. 000890792 650_0 $$aScience in popular culture. 000890792 650_0 $$aGenetic engineering. 000890792 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBULL, SOFIA.$$tTELEVISION AND THE GENETIC IMAGINARY.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2019$$z1137548460$$w(OCoLC)1085161809 000890792 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in science and popular culture. 000890792 852__ $$bebk 000890792 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-54847-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000890792 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:890792$$pGLOBAL_SET 000890792 980__ $$aEBOOK 000890792 980__ $$aBIB 000890792 982__ $$aEbook 000890792 983__ $$aOnline 000890792 994__ $$a92$$bISE
