Abstract

Although Rose claims to rely on Marx's paradoxical view of history to explain the freedom enjoyed by what he calls "lifelines," he blurs what one might call the "objective" and "subjective" senses of freedom. This, in turn, reflects his overreaction to biological reductionism. Consequently, in discussing biology-related policy issues, Rose fails to distinguish genuinely efficacious interventions and merely convenient ones.
