Description

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licenceTranshumanism is a philosophy which advocates for the use of technology to radically enhance human capacities. This book interrogates the promises of transhumanism, arguing that it is deeply entwined with capitalist ideology.

In an era of escalating crisis and soaring inequality, it casts doubt on a utopian techno-capitalist narrative of unending progress.

In critiquing the transhumanist project, the book offers an alternative ethical framework for the future of life on the planet. As the debates around the advancement of AI and corporate-led digital technologies intensify, this is an important read for academics as well as policy makers .
