Bioculture, comprises the emerging area bounded by the medical sciences, social sciences, area studies, culture studies, biotechnology, disability studies, the humanities, and the economic and global environment. Bioculture defines the activity and consolidation of ideas created when the human intersects with the technological. Along these lines, one can see the biosphere — the earth as it is affected by the human — as the adaptation of the natural to the human and biocultures as the inter-adaptation of the human to the new technologies and ways of knowing characterized by the 21st century’s attitude toward the body. It assumes that in bioculture there's a diverse way to know the workings of the body and mind, and that these are primarily culturally derived, and an expert's way of knowing produces specific strong results. However the results do not have an exclusive purview over the body and mind. Plus it seeks to develop and encourage not only the experts but also parts of people's bodies and minds as the subject of study. ==References== *Boyd B, "Getting it all wrong - Bioculture critiques cultural critique" American Scholar 75 (4): 18-30 Fall 2006 *Melby MK, Smith EO "PMS: A bioculture-bound syndrome."
