BOOK: Machineries of Similarity and Difference
My book is under contract with MIT Press! They are targeting a fall 2025 publication.
The book tracks the social history of three AIDS research infrastructures, that over three decades have ‘interoperated’, that is, sought to make their resources combinable and comparable.
In sum, the book is about all the work and technique demanded across years, decades and continents to support scientific studies of HIV/AIDS when next to nothing has stayed the same : not the disease, but also not the science or technology, not those who die from it or live with it, and certainly not its politics. And yet still, these research infrastructures go on supporting research.
