Book Synopsis
Provides fresh insights into the possibilities and limitations of collaboration, and diagnoses the micropolitics which effectively constrained the potential for mutual scientific flourishing. This title utilizes a real-world experience as a springboard for timely reflections on how the human and life sciences can and should transform each other.

Trade Review
"Designing Human Practices is a very significant, quite brilliantly conceived, at times quite fascinating, and always thought-provoking project. It both documents a particularly complex history of an experimental project in natural/human science engagement and provides a bracing and at times daunting set of schematics for thinking through not only the specifics of the SynBERC project but also its broader resonances." (Donald Brenneis, University of California, Santa Cruz)"
