Our brain is the source of everything that makes us human:
language, creativity, rationality, emotion, communication, culture,
politics. The neuroscienceshave given us, in recent decades,
fundamental new insights into how the brain works and what that
means for how we see ourselves as individuals and ascommunities.
Now - with the help of new advances in nanotechnology - brain
science proposes to go further: to study its molecular foundations,
to repair brainfunctions, to create mind-machine interfaces, and to
enhance human mental capacities in radical ways. This book explores
the convergence of these tworevolutionary scientific fields and the
implications of this convergence for the future of human societies.
In the process, the book offers a significant new approachto
technology assessment, one which operates in real-time, alongside
the innovation process, to inform the ways in which new fields of
science and technologyemerge in, get shaped by, and help shape
human societies."
