Hughes on H+ on Radio Netherlands
Abstract:
Scientists are already working on implants, computer chips and nanotechnology in medicine that could prevent diseases, prolong human life and enhance our physical and mental performances. And according to James Hughes, that's as natural an evolutionary step as the first caveman slinging the bloody fur coat of a recently killed animal around himself to stave out the cold. Hughes explains:
"We [trans-humanists] want to argue that human beings can become more than what people consider to be human and that's part of our right."
