Scholarly attention to the concept of the posthuman has increased recently in response to pressing problems about what it means to be human and what distinguishes the human from the nonhuman. The ongoing ecological catastrophes, recent technological breakthroughs, and the desire to address in new ways issues involving race, gender, and environment has further intensified this engagement. In the light of this, we hope that this book will serve as a forum for discussing how the concept of the posthuman may have altered our interactions with the natural world, and with one another, for delving into how we may have always been entwined with the nonhuman others, and finally, for speculating, how the posthuman may have repercussions beyond the academy.
