The study of the social implications of human enhancement is an interdisciplinary work that draws from the fields of political science, sociology, philosophy, and bioethics, among others. It is also a complex and rapidly evolving subject that raises important questions about the potential benefits and risks of these technologies, as well as how society should govern and regulate their development and use. An in-depth exploration of current and future human enhancement technologies, this book delves into the specifics of current and emerging human enhancement technologies, such as cognitive enhancers, brain-computer interfaces, and genetic engineering, discussing the state of the art, the limitations and also the technological developments that one can expect in the future and how they can be regulated and used responsibly.

In the rapidly advancing landscape of science and technology, humanity stands at the threshold of unprecedented possibilities, particularly in the realm of human enhancement. Theologians, philosophers, ethicists, and scientists engage in profound discussions about the ethical, moral, and spiritual implications of enhancing the human experience.What does it mean to be human in the face of technological augmentation? How do religious traditions perceive the ethical boundaries of human enhancement? Can spirituality coexist with the pursuit of enhancing our physical, cognitive, and emotional capacities? This volume embarks on comprehensively exploring these questions and more, drawing from diverse theological perspectives, ethical frameworks, and scientific insights.This book aims to bridge the gap between theology, ethics, and emerging technologies by fostering an interdisciplinary dialogue. It encourages readers to contemplate the intricate relationship between humanity’s quest for enhancement and the enduring spiritual questions that have captivated human minds for centuries.

This book examines the current state of the technologically-caused unemployed, and attempts to answer the question of how to proceed into an era beyond technological unemployment. Beginning with an overview of the most salient issues, the experts collected in this work present their own novel visions of the future and offer suggestions for adapting to a more symbiotic economic relationship with AI. These suggestions include different modes of dealing with education, aging workers, government policies, and the machines themselves. Ultimately, they lay out a whole new approach to economics, one in which we learn to merge with and adapt to our increasingly intelligent creations.
