I sometimes look at things this way: Whereas religiosity is a nonsensical and harmful nonstarter; whereas (secular) humanism fatally overlooks the incorrigible, all-scales cussedness of the human race; and whereas the best action _Homo sapiens_ could take would be to replace itself with something better; be it therefore resolved that transhumanism is the thing to embrace! This volume comprises a selection of 42 new and not-so-new writings by authors such as Nick Bostrom, Ben Goerzel, Marvin Minsky, Hans Moravec, Vernor Vinge, Aubrey de Grey, and Ray Kurzweil. If it doesn't educate you about the range of transhumanist thought, nothing will. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
The first authoritative and comprehensive survey of the origins and current state of transhumanist thinking The rapid pace of emerging technologies is playing an increasingly important role in overcoming fundamental human limitations. Featuring core writings by seminal thinkers in the speculative possibilities of the posthuman condition, essays address key philosophical arguments for and against human enhancement, explore the inevitability of life extension, and consider possible solutions to the growing issues of social and ethical implications and concerns. Edited by the internationally acclaimed founders of the philosophy and social movement of transhumanism, The Transhumanist Reader is an indispensable guide to our current state of knowledge of the quest to expand the frontiers of human nature.
