By  taking the key ideas from transhumanist philosophy – the desirability of human  self-design and immortality, the elimination of all suffering and the  expansion of human autonomy – Michael Hauskeller explores these narratives and  the understanding of human nature that informs them. Particular attention is  paid to the theory of transhumanism as a form of utopia, stories of human nature,  the increasing integration of the radical human enhancement project into the  cultural mainstream, and the drive to upgrade from flesh to machine. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-11-21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319397405\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-39741-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 225\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46612822884492,"sku":"9783319397405","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319397405.jpg?v=1773285131","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783319397405","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
