Summary
Chances are you either know, or you are, a cyborg: a person who is aided or enhanced by embedded technology, such as artificial limbs or pacemakers. But advances in science are taking us beyond replacement parts and into a new realm. They are expanding the range of our senses and changing the nature of the human body and mind. Breakthrough fusions of biology and technology are making us stronger, faster and smarter. But as the natural and the man-made worlds merge, will we become more than human? Or something other than human?
