The Politics and Ethics of Transhumanism

Reviews / Votes

"A uniquely rich and thoughtful account of one of the most destructive ideologies of our time. This is a book for anyone who wants a clearsighted view of the current political moment." Alice Crary, University of Oxford





"At the edge of academic debates, an increasingly powerful position has developed: transhumanism. Thomas exposes its celebratory take on capitalism, data and technology, and its false solutions to contemporary dilemmas. A much-needed guide." Nick Couldry, London School of Economics and Political Science





"Erudite and thorough - the most rational discussion of Transhumanism to date. No less than a seminal intervention in the field." Jonathan Hay, University of Chester "Thomas does a brilliant job of criticizing transhumanist thought by situating it within complexity and capitalism. This full-length book is incredibly well researched and a timely addition to the current discourse." Richard Lewis, University of Washington Bothell





"This is a brilliant, timely, and important contribution to the growing literature on the philosophical flaws and potential dangers of the transhumanist ideology. A must-read for anyone interested in the future of humanity and how this future could go terribly wrong." Emile P. Torres, Case Western Reserve University
