This book explores what science fiction can tell us about the human
condition in a technological world, with the ethical dilemmas and
consequences that this entails. This book is the result of the
joint efforts of scholars and scientists from various disciplines.
This interdisciplinary approach sets an example for those who, like
us, have been busy assessing the ways in which fictional attempts
to fathom the possibilities of science and technology speak to
central concerns about what it means to be human in a contemporary
world of technology and which ethical dilemmas it brings along. One
of the aims of this book is to demonstrate what can be achieved in
approaching science fiction as a kind of imaginary laboratory for
experimentation, where visions of human (or even post-human) life
under various scientific, technological or natural conditions that
differ from our own situation can be thought through and commented
upon. Although a scholarly work, this book is also designed to be
accessible to a general audience that has an interest in science
fiction, as well as to a broader academic audience interested in
ethical questions.

Ein gro er Teil der Ver ffentlichungen zum Thema Jugendsport geht
der Frage nach, wie Jugendliche zu sportlicher Bet tigung motiviert
werden k nnen, wobei der Fokus meist auf den Inhalten liegt. Diese
Arbeit stellt jedoch den Zugang zum Sport in den Mittelpunkt. Daher
werden hier die Bed rfnisse von Jugendlichen im Hinblick auf Sport
und Bewegung untersucht und den bestehenden Strukturen im Sport
gegen bergestellt. Die Diskrepanz zwischen den sportlichen
Angeboten und den Bed rfnissen Jugendlicher wird durch die verst
rkte Vereinsabwanderung und die Zuwendung zum Trend- und
Funsportbereich deutlich. In dieser Arbeit wird ein neues Konzept
pr sentiert, das die Bed rfnisse Jugendlicher ber cksichtigt und
dadurch die Freude an Sport und Bewegung f rdert.
