Repairing Damaged Brain Circuits: A 25-Year Journey from Lab to FDA Approval.
An examination of how responses to public problems are shaped by historical and cultural context, by the professional and ideological perspectives of decisionmakers, and by assumptions about what actions are considered to be legitimate and illegitimate and whose participation in the decision process is considered to be appropriate. Illustrations will be provided from social science research and from contemporary policy dilemmas.
