Robert Dale Parker suggested several helpful references on the literary background of women and disease in the nineteenth century; Helen Watson Verran and Marc Berg gave us very useful comments on earlier drafts of sections of this book. Conversations with Kari Thoresen about the notion of texture in organizations were very helpful, as were ongoing conversations with the late Anselm Strauss about trajectory. The work of Mark Casey Condon on the nature of time morality in a men's homeless shelter was helpful in thinking through issues in the chapter on tuberculosis. For various parts of the argument, we received most helpful comments from Ann Bishop, Emily Ignacio, Bill Anderson, Susan Anderson, Howard S. Becker, Isabelle Baszanger, Nick Burbules, Kathy Addelson, Dick Boland, Chuck Goodwin, Chuck Bazerman, Cheris Kramarae, Donna Haraway, Linnea Dunn, Bruno Latour, JoAnne Yates, Gail Hornstein, Ina Wagner, Joan Fujimura, Alberto Cambrosio, Jürg Strübing, John Law, John Bowers, Kjeld Schmidt, Kari Thoresen, Niranjan Karnik, Karen Ruhleder, Emily Ignacio, Joseph Goguen, Mike Lynch, Charlotte Linde, Marc Berg, Adele Clarke, Alice Robbin, Ole Hanseth, John |
