今天，任何人都可以购买可以跟踪，量化和测量身体及其环境的技术。可穿戴或便携式传感器检测心率，葡萄糖水平，采取的步骤，水质，基因组和微生物组，并将其转变为电子数据。这种现象是赋权的，还是一种新的社会控制形式？谁自愿列举身体经历，谁被迫这样做？谁解释了结果数据？所有这些如何影响医学实践与自我护理，科学知识之间的关系？量化检查了生物传感技术成为日常生活的一部分时会出现的这些问题和其他问题。这本书提供了一系列观点，并具有社会科学，文化研究，新闻学，工业和非营利性世界的看法。贡献者考虑数据，人格和自我量化的冲动；法律，商业和医学问题，包括隐私，医疗建议外包以及作为“ paraclinical”实践的自我追踪；和技术问题，包括互操作性，社会技术校准，数据的替代视图以及新的设计空间。 ，Mette Kragh-Furbo，Celia Lury，Adrian Mackenzie，Rajiv Mehta，Maggie Mort，Dawn Nafus，Gina Neff，Helen Nissenbaum，Heather Patterson，Celia Roberts，Jamie Sherman，Alex Taylor，Gary Wolf
Today anyone can purchase technology that can track, quantify, and measure the body and its environment. Wearable or portable sensors detect heart rates, glucose levels, steps taken, water quality, genomes, and microbiomes, and turn them into electronic data. Is this phenomenon empowering, or a new form of social control? Who volunteers to enumerate bodily experiences, and who is forced to do so? Who interprets the resulting data? How does all this affect the relationship between medical practice and self care, between scientific and lay knowledge? Quantified examines these and other issues that arise when biosensing technologies become part of everyday life. The book offers a range of perspectives, with views from the social sciences, cultural studies, journalism, industry, and the nonprofit world. The contributors consider data, personhood, and the urge to self-quantify; legal, commercial, and medical issues, including privacy, the outsourcing of medical advice, and self-tracking as a "paraclinical" practice; and technical concerns, including interoperability, sociotechnical calibration, alternative views of data, and new space for design.ContributorsMarc Bhlen, Geoffrey C.
