This volume provides a distinctive overview and analysis of the place of social constructionism in social psychology. The author′s arguments revolve around two key questions: How can social constructionism account for changes in human identities? In what ways might social constructionism accommodate a role for nonhumans - whether technological or natural′ - in the constitution of identity?

Michael locates these questions between recent innovations in social psychology and the highly influential contributions of actor-network theory, which has come to dominate the sociology of scientific knowledge.

Industry Reviews
`A book which shows the exciting potential of actor-network theory for everyone with an interest in social constructionism. It bubbles with exciting ideas' - Jonathan Potter, Loughborough University
