Transcendence
[electronic resources]
The disinformation encyclopedia of transhumanism and the singularity
R.U. Sirius, Jay Cornell.
San Francisco, CA
Disinformation Books, an imprint of Red Wheel/Weiser, LLC
2015.
xiii, 268 p.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 267-268).
"In nearly ninety A-Z entries, Transcendence provides a multilayered look at the accelerating advances in artificial intelligence, cognitive science, genomics, information technology, nanotechnology, neuroscience, space exploration, synthetic biology, robotics, and virtual worlds that are making transhumanism a reality. Entries range from Cloning and Cyborg Feminism to Designer Babies and Memory-Editing Drugs. In addition, the book notes historical predecessors and personalities, both in mythology and history--ranging from Timothy Leary to Ray Kurzweil. It also introduces the culture around transhumanism, covering all the geeky obsessions of the transhumanist movement"--Page 4 of cover.
