    P>Review "Clearly written yet dense, this ambitious book could offer an excellent guide for new graduate students needing a quick study orienting them to the philosophical treatment of humanity at a singular moment in cultural criticism." - CHOICE"Susanna Lindbergs engaging comparative analyses convincingly explore the shift of perspective from understanding humanity as technological to a broader sense of bio-technics, skillfully distinguishing this philosophical approach from transhumanism and certain versions of posthumanism." - Krzysztof Ziarek, author of Language after Heidegger About the Author: Susanna Lindberg is Professor of Continental Philosophy at Leiden University in the Netherlands.
