I am ok with posthuman even if it is philosophy and not literature. I am a female cyborg. ❤🎉 Taking a course.

Posthumanism transcends biology with ideology, while transhumanism embraces technology for human augmentation.

The human in transhumanism is scientifically defined, whereas in posthumanism, it is ideational.

"Transhumanism focuses on technological enhancement, while metahumanism and posthumanism explore broader philosophical implications beyond technology."

It could be hypothesized that Gandhi's moral philosophy surpassed a purely Darwinian understanding of evolution, but this would be a philosophical interpretation rather than a scientific theory

I bought your book. Listened and understood. I am more into concrete transhuman.

A utilitarian accepts dualism in the sense that they distinguish between the utility of actions (use) and the resulting happiness or well-being.

Congratulations, Francesca.
I read your first book PHILOSOPHICAL POSTHUMANISM which was fascinating.
Looking forward to getting this latest work of yours.

Dr. Ferrando always a treat to the mind, body and soul to see and hear you reminding and affirming us as we move through each experience of now! I love the added meditation on the roses.

Thank you, for your introductory presentation, Francesca, on your new book, "The Art Of Being Posthuman". A book is on my to-buy list.
Feel this book aligns nicely with the rising shift in consciousness around the planet. Threads nicely with a personal interest in the intersectionality of science and technology, ancient wisdom and spirituality. Just returned from a profound 3-month spiritual journey in the heart of Egypt.
Peace and love from Sydney, Australia.
