This volume examines the latest scientific and technological developments likely to shape our
post-human future. Using a multidisciplinary approach the author argues that we stand at the
precipice of an evolutionary change caused by genetic engineering and anatomically embedded
digital and informational technologies. The author delves into current scientific initiatives
that will lead to the emergence of super smart individuals with unique creative capacities. He
draws on technology psychology and philosophy to consider humans-as-they-are relative to
autonomy creativity and their place in a future shared with 'post humans.' The author
discusses the current state of bioethics and technology law both which policymakers beset by
a torrent of revolutionary advances in bioengineering are attempting to steer. Significantly
Carvalko addresses why we must both preserve the narratives that brought us to this moment and
continue to express our humanity through music art andliterature to ensure that as a
uniquely creative species we don't simply vanish in the ether of an evolution brought about by
our own technology.
