On Being Transhuman | The Mark: "Look up 'transhumanism' at Wikipedia and you will find an extensive entry, with enough hyperlinks to keep you occupied for a very long time.

Wikipedia tells us that 'the contemporary meaning of the term 'transhumanism' – which is now symbolized by H+ (human plus) ... (is) an international intellectual and cultural movement that affirms the possibility and desirability of fundamentally transforming the human condition by developing and making widely available technologies to eliminate aging and to greatly enhance human intellectual, physical, and psychological capacities.'"
