4.9/5 (30436 ratings)

Description:"The purpose of this book is two-fold. First, it provides an anthropological analysis of the transhumanist technological imagination. It explores the visions and values that animate transhumanist initiatives in the contemporary United states, and it explores the various ways transhumanists seek to use science and technology to usher in an enhanced posthuman future. Second, the book uses the study of transhumanism as a way to introduce a new generation of students to the discipline of cultural anthropology. In classic anthropological fashion, it argues that transhumanism can be better understood by approaching it from a comparative perspective. It shows how transhumanist efforts to transform the future of our species speak to a longstanding set of concerns within the discipline of cultural anthropology"--We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
