Review # 1 was written on 2016-12-05 00:00:00 Tammy Dennis Cohen sold out and now works at Apple University, but he sure did write a damn good book with Joel Rogers in 80s. The chapter "Structure" on the structure of capitalist democracy is the one of the most cleared-eyed assessments of the challenges to building an alternative to modern capitalism that I've ever read.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-09-11 00:00:00 Christophe Ravier (Again, pulled from my blog's old reading section): Rabinow does anthropology of science, inspired by Michel Foucault, but perhaps even more so by Foucault’s thesis advisor, Georges Canguilhem. I think the second essay, “Representations are Social Facts: Modernity and Post-modernity in Anthropology,” (discussing the call by those like Richard Rorty to ‘abandon epistemology’) is supposed to be the classic one of the collection, but some of the later ones involving discussion of the practices of current biotechnology are really interesting.
