True to its title Emergent Forms of Life and the Anthropological Voice isabout worlds coming into being in technoculture. Attentive especially to thenew biologies and biotechnologies information technologies and ecological andenvironmental matters Michael M. J. Fischer explores what he calls ethicalplateaus or domains of ethical challenge. This wonderful book neither condemnsnor glorifies emergent worlds instead it gives us deep and intelligentanalysis and reflection from a distinctive ethnographic point of view.Culture comes alive here. As Fischer reminds us vividly culture is not avariable. Culture is about relationships about relating as a verb. Culture isa passage and a topos and Fischer is a masterful guide.Donna Haraway «
