Hi Doctor Raine. I have to admit I am not familiar with your work, but I may have to look into it - I'm a graduate student doing research on incarceration in the US within the field of critical medical anthropology. I'm curious about one of the questions you posted - is biology destiny. Is this a claim to genetics as the main determinant of future behaviors, or of the biology of a person in general (taking into account ecosyndemic factors as well)?

Also, how do you account for the issue of scientific universalism (as described by Wallerstein as well as various writers and theorists in the Subaltern Studies collective) in your work?

Thanks for answering!

If I were to pick up your book and add it to my summer reading list, would you mind if I send you any questions I have about it?
