It's out!
My review of Michael Chorost's Rebuilt : How Becoming Part Computer Made Me More Human is available on the L.A. Times Web site. I think it's also the lead review, but I haven't seen hard copy yet; I've got a couple copies reserved at my local bookstore.
Unlike my review of Ramez Naam's excellent More Than Human : Embracing the Promise of Biological Enhancement, I actually found this one myself.
I'm finding the transhumanist argument-- or at least the more humanist incarnation represented by Naam and Chorost, and a few others-- more and more compelling. Or to put it another way, they're trying to deal with questions that we're all going to be struggling with in the future.
