More Posthuman Glossary

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The notion of the posthuman continues to both intrigue and confuse, not least because of the huge number of ideas, theories and figures associated with this term. More Posthuman Glossary provides a way into the dizzying array of posthuman concepts, offering vivid accounts of emerging terms.

It is much more than a series of definitions, however, as it seeks to imagine and predict what new terms might come into being as this exciting field continues to expand.

A follow-up volume to the brilliant interventions of Posthuman Glossary (2018), this book extends and elaborates on that work, particularly focusing on concepts of race, indigeneity and new ideas in radical ecology. It also includes new and emerging voices within the new humanities and multiple modes of communicating ideas.

This is an indispensable glossary for those who are exploring what the non-human, inhuman, and posthuman might mean in the 21st century.
