Euro-Transhumanism (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781529257380)

What if the future of humanity wasn't driven by Silicon Valley's vision?

At the edge of its dissolution, European humanism faces profound challenges as AI, biotechnology and posthuman theory reshape what it means to be human. The classical ideals of truth, goodness and beauty -- once the moral and aesthetic compass of the European tradition -- are being twisted.

This book introduces the reader to Euro-Transhumanism--a distinctive, philosophically rich alternative to the individualistic, technocratic focus of classic transhumanism. It draws upon Europe's continental cultural tradition, rejects Eurocentrism, utopian fantasies and dualistic thinking, and explores pragmatic ways of increasing the diversity of personal flourishing.

This is a thought-provoking guide to critically reimagining our future.
