Summary

Trans-humanism is a social theory that states the moral duty of humans to transgress. Within the context of changing values towards a culture of optimizing and upgrading as well as comprehensive digitalization, such a social theory is of particular importance. Yet do these social changes that have a deep impact on life and body, communication and work as well as on our concept of ourselves and the world, really indicate an inner-worldly trans-human salvation? The authors of this book provide perspectives that take these processes of social change seriously and demand that they be designed in a humane manner.
