      abstract = {Offering a novel and pragmatic perspective, this timely  book critically examines the development of a culture of  machinist regulation and questions whether this approach is  appropriate in an era of rising biological technologies.  Adopting an ontological approach, James Griffin considers  how current regulatory frameworks favour digital technology  and how this may change in the future. Griffin adeptly  investigates how regulation can impact the nature of new  technologies, especially as biological computing is  becoming more commonplace. Chapters provide a wealth of  critical analysis, considering cutting-edge technologies  such as AI, prosthesis, and biological computing. Griffin  outlines a proposed reformative system which focuses on the  biological substrate in the creation of cultural works. The  book serves to highlight the ever-increasing need for  awareness of the importance of biological substrates and  for a regulatory system which reflects this. The State of  Cultural Biology will be an essential read for academics  and students interested in intellectual property law, law  and technology, legal philosophy and law"s role in society.  It will also prove invaluable to policymakers and  professionals looking to broaden their knowledge on the  regulation of modern technology.},
