Transhumanist Sci-Fi Series Review


Listen Later

This week we wrap up our series on Transhumanist Sci-Fi by analyzing Vinge's A Fire Upon the Deep, Vonnegut's Galapagos, and Bacigalupi's The Windup Girl in the context of Donna Haraway's seminal transhumanist essay A Cyborg Manifesto.  Listen to our previous episodes for our review and discussion about these books. Next week we will start our series on Contemporary Chinese Sci-Fi with Liu Cixin's The Three-Body Problem.
