Acknowledgements
This book is the result of a five-year group research project within which each of us, the contributors, engaged in our own studies, but throughout which we had many interesting and generative conversations, together. My warmest thanks go out to all of the participants for making this collaboration so inspiring and so much fun. While we were working in different departments and different countries, we had a virtual research home for the project, which was the Body, Knowledge, Subjectivity seminar group (colloquially known as P6) at Tema Technology and Social Change, Linköping University, Sweden.

This project was funded by the European Research Council, under the Europea
