The notion of the posthuman continues to both intrigue and confuse, not least because of the huge number of ideas, theories and figures associated with this term. More Posthuman Glossary provides a way in to the dizzying array of posthuman concepts, providing vivid accounts of emerging terms. It is much more than a series of definitions, however, in that it seeks to imagine and predict what new terms might come into being as this exciting field continues to expand. A follow-up volume to the brilliant interventions of Posthuman Glossary (2018), this book extends and elaborates on that work, particularly focusing on concepts of race, indigeneity and new ideas in radical ecology. It also includes new and emerging voices within the new humanities and multiple modes of communicating ideas.This is an indispensible glossary for those who are exploring what the non-human, inhuman and posthuman might mean in the 21st century.

While posthumanism has gained traction over the past few decades, its application has, so far, mostly been within the humanities. This volume brings together a collection of researchers working both within the humanities and beyond, including in marine biology, computer science, the social sciences, legal studies, decolonial studies, pedagogies, and nursing practice, to focus on methods and practices that showcase how to do transdisciplinary posthuman work.At a time where the humanities are in question, with multiple departments and faculties being shut down or drastically cut in size, Posthuman Convergences provides a strong example of exactly why the humanities are so vital in the contemporary moment. It showcases a series of ways to help us think differently about the most pressing problems of our times.
