A man, blind for twenty years, can see when he puts on a pair of glasses connected to electrodes in his brain. & Gene therapy allows a young woman born with 'bubble boy' disease to live normally among her peers. & Life-extension techniques promise to increase human life span by forty years or more. It sounds like the stuff of science fiction, but these are true phenomena that have recently become hot topics in mainstream media. But while technology is enhancing the lives of many, it has also created a host of controversial capabilities, ranging from cloning to genetic engineering. Distilling the most cutting-edge achievements being made in labs around the world, MORE THAN HUMAN offers an exciting tour of the way technology is impacting our lives. Throughout this remarkable trip, Ramez Naam shares an impassioned vision for the future, with revealing insight into the ethical dilemmas posed by twenty-first-century science. Encouraging us to celebrate rather than fear these innovations, his powerful book separates fact from myth with elegant lucidity, arguing that these controversial technologies have the power to transform the human race for the better. MORE THAN HUMAN' 'offers much-needed wisdom in the raging debates between technophobes and technophiles, and everyone else seeking to understand the marvelous possibilities that arise when mind meets machine.
