The Art of Being Posthuman: Who Are We in the 21st Century? - Francesca Ferrando

Descriere The Art of Being Posthuman: Who Are We in the 21st Century? - Francesca Ferrando

\nThis book offers a comprehensive reflection on the existential condition of the 21st century. A visionary introduction to existential posthumanism, it takes the form of eight meditations.\n \nThis posthuman journey of self-inquiry engages with a wide range of knowledge and wisdom: from the Paleolithic times to the futures of radical life extension, from multi-species evolutions to the rights of Nature, the Anthropocene and the rise of Artificial Intelligence.\n \nThe book declutters the habit of being human. Letting go of the need for anthropocentric mastery and species-specific ambitions, the reader emerges regenerated. The manifold paths of posthuman self-realization reveal that we are all co-creators in the existential unfolding: our lives are our ultimate works of art.\n \nThe Art of Being Posthuman is a self-help guide to navigate our brave new world. \n \n\n \nYou can listen to Dr. Ferrando talk about the book's key themes in these videos: 1. Introduction and 2. Conclusion\n \n \n
