Realist Responses to Post-Human Society: Ex Machina
Langbeschreibung
This volume focuses on the slow process of 'human enhancement', starting from pastoralism through to modern transplant, genetic and bio-engineering interventions. Examining the ways in which recent advances in technology threaten to blur and displace the boundaries constitutive of our shared humanity, Realist Responses to Post-Human Society explores the philosophical and ethical questions raised by these developments, and discusses - and meets - the dangers posed by the combination of transhumanism with post-humanist social theories and antihumanist practices, institutions and ideologies.
