This book examines the philosophical aspects of human enhancement and its reality in the age of scientific humanism as one of the most crucial philosophical issues for the future of human beings (and thus humanity). The author has noted that cyborgs-robots-avatars and bio-technologically created beings as new metaphysical forms exist alongside biological human beings. The main focus of the book is the process of cybernetization (cyborgization) of the human being which is carried out through improving and reshaping human physical and cognitive functions, as well as establishing life on a new nonhuman basis that raises a number of ontological and, in particular, ethical questions. The author builds a strong case for the necessity of cyborgoethics to help guide moral actions and protocols for preserving the vitality of life within the rapidly changing technological society. The book raises important questions about the human future - how will humans get into cohabitation with cyborgs and robots? Will singularity come to pass? Is it possible to achieve immortality? The intention of the book is to consider the possibilities of philosophy in questioning the essence of human cyborgization and social relations in the current age of scientific humanism. In this regard, we sought to encourage a philosophical, interdisciplinary, and general intersubjective discussion about the ethical limits of the cyborgization of human nature and history. The preface to the book was written by Professor emeritus, Kevin Warwick Deputy Director of Research at Coventry University (UK) and Rocci Luppicini, associate professor at the University of Ottawa (CAN). The book's contents were supported by interviews with world-renowned scientists: Richard Walker, spokesman for the Human Brain Project (HBP); Amal Graafstra, biohacker and the founder of the biotech company Dangerous Things; Martine Rothblatt, philosopher and transgender; Ian Pearson, engineer and futurologist; Kevin Warwick, professor of cybernetics; and performance artist Stelarc. The book consistently integrates philosophical reflection with an interdisciplinary approach, taking into account the increasingly significant dimensions of different scientific fields (natural, technical, social and information sciences) which are of importance for the problem of cyborgization of the human being. The book is particularly interesting for scientist, researchers and students who participate in research related to transhumanism, artificial intelligence and biotechnology.

The book consistently integrates philosophical reflection with a interdisciplinary approach, taking into account the increasingly significant dimensions of different scientific fields that are of importance for the problem of cyborgization of the human being. This book exemplaryly warns of onthological, ethical dilemmas and is an example of connecting all scientific disciplines into an meaningful and cautionary whole.

We are currently living in an age of scientific humanism. Cyborgs, robots, avatars, and bio-technologically created beings are new entities that exist alongside biological human beings. As with many emerging technologies, many people will find the concept foreign and frightening. There is a strong possibility that these entities will be mistreated. Philosophical Issues of Human Cyborgization and the Necessity of Prolegomena on Cyborg Ethics discusses the ethics of human cyborgization as well as emerging technologies of robots and avatars that exhibit human-like qualities. The chapters build a strong case for the necessity of cyborg ethics and protocols for preserving the vitality of life within an ever-advancing technological society. Covering topics such as cyborg hacking, historical reality, and naturalism, this book is a dynamic resource for scientists, ethicists, cyber behavior professionals, students and professors of both technological and philosophical studies, faculty of higher education, philosophers, AI engineers, healthcare professionals, researchers, and academicians.
