DESCRIPTION:In this meeting Warwick Anderson leads an informal discussion 
 of his recent book _"Intolerant Bodies: A Short History of Autoimmunity":h
 ttps://jhupbooks.press.jhu.edu/content/intolerant-bodies _\, co-authored w
 ith Ian R. Mackay. Anderson is particularly interested in two issues\, how
  to collaborate with a scientist in writing historical narratives\, and th
 e meaning of biological individuality (especially self-tolerance) in the 2
 0th century. For a discussion of the latter\, see his "feuilleton on toler
 ance":http://somatosphere.net/2014/10/tolerance.html. Hopkins offers a 30%
  discount on the book with the code HNAF (we've been told to spread the wo
 rd). Participants should have read the book\; chapters are excerpted in _I
 sis_ 105 (2014) and _Journal of the History of Biology_ 47 (2014).
