This book interrogates the ways in which new technological advances
impact the thought and practices of humanism. Chapters investigate
the social, political, and cultural implications of the creation
and use of advanced forms of technology, examining both defining
benefits and potential dangers. Contributors also discuss
technology's relationship to and impact on the shifting definitions
we hold for humankind. International and multi-disciplinary in
nature and scope, the volume presents an exploration of humanism
and technology that is both racially diverse and gender sensitive.
With great depth and self-awareness, contributors offer suggestions
for how humanists and humanist organizations might think about and
relate to technology in a rapidly changing world. More broadly, the
book offers a critical humanistic interrogation of the concept of
"progress" especially as it relates to technological advancement.
