Description

Humanesis critically examines central strains of posthumanism, searching out biases in the ways that humantechnology coupling is explained. Specifically, it interrogates three approaches taken by posthumanist discourse: scientific, humanist, and organismic. David Cecchetto's investigations reveal how each perspective continues to hold on to elements of the humanist tradition.
