The book contains a great deal of interest to stimulate the reader, much that is beyond the scope of this review to touch on. The quality of writing throughout makes the book a valuable contribution to the ongoing debates about how we regulate technologies and how they regulate us. Ian Walden Computer and Telecommunications Law Review Vol 16: 2010 An invaluable resource to any, from the lawyer to the sociologist, philosopher and ethicist, who are interested and recognise the importance of engaging with the ethical, social and legal implications of new emerging technologies Regulating Technologies will ... continue to be referred to due to the spirit in which it has initiated and helped frame and inform discussion. Matt James Biocentre Newsletter Some of the most perplexing issues are unravelled and explored in this collection of essays...The range of topics covered is impressive What makes this book so refreshing is that it sidesteps well-rehearsed arguments for improving the scientific basis of policy-making. Regulating Technologies is not the final word on a topic as kaleidoscope as this, nor does it claim to be, but it is an initial and novel attempt at a systematic and more comprehensive analysis of regulation at the frontiers of modern technology. Elen Stokes The Modern Law Review Volume 73, No. 4, Jul 2010

In this unique volume, a team of leading international scholars address many of the key difficulties surrounding the regulation of emerging technological targets as well as the implications of adopting technology as a regulatory tool.
