Opis

This book pays attention to lived experiences of sex, drugs and the scientific practices that make these experiences intelligible. Through a series of empirically and historically detailed case studies, the book examines how new technologies and scientific artifacts mediate sexual encounters and shape the worlds and self-practices of gay men.
