Perspectives from philosophy, ethics, law, and policy are applied to a wide variety of enhancements, including integration of technology within human bodies, as well as genetic, biological, and pharmacological modifications. Humans may be permanently or temporarily enhanced with artificial parts by manipulating (or reprogramming) human DNA and through other enhancement techniques (and combinations thereof). We are on the cusp of significantly modifying (and perhaps improving) the human ecosystem. This evolution necessitates a continuing effort to re-evaluate current laws and, if appropriate, to modify such laws or develop new laws that address enhancement technology. A legal, ethical, and policy response to current and future human enhancements should strive to protect the rights of all involved and to recognize the responsibilities of humans to other conscious and living beings, regardless of what they look like or what abilities they have (or lack). A potential ethical approach is outlined in which rights and responsibilities should be respected even if enhanced humans are perceived by non-enhanced (or less-enhanced) humans as ?no longer human? at all. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $acyborgs 610 $aimplants 610 $aposthumans 610 $aHomo technologicus 610 $aHomo sapiens 610 $ahuman-machine interaction 610 $acyborg 610 $aenhancement technology 610 $aprosthesis 610 $abrain-computer interface 610 $anew senses 610 $aidentity 610 $aneuroprosthesis 610 $apatent law 610 $acopyright law 610 $acognitive liberty 610 $ainternational law 610 $aevolution 610 $acultural technology 610 $ahuman enhancement 610 $aengineering 610 $abionics 610 $abiotechnology 610 $adisability 610 $amarketing 610 $acultural studies 610 $aDisney 610 $asupercrip 610 $ahuman enhancements 610 $aautonomy 610 $ainformed consent 610 $amoral enhancement 610 $avulnerability 610 $anumeric identity 610 $amilitary ethics 610 $ahuman-machine interaction 610 $aupgrading humans 610 $asuperhumans 610 $agene editing 610 $aembryo selection 610 $aCRISPR 610 $acognitive enhancement 610 $aassisted reproductive technologies (ART) 610 $apublic opinion 610 $ain vitro gametogenesis (IVG) 610 $agenome-wide association studies (GWAS) 610 $abrain-computer interface (BCI) 610 $abrain-machine interface (BMI) 610 $aethical 610 $alegal and social Issues (ELSI) 610 $aneuroethics 610 $anarrative review 610 $aintellectual property 610 $acopyright 610 $aneuropolitics 610 $abrain science 610 $avoting 610 $ahuman rights 610 $aethics 610 $adiscrimination 610 $aracism 610 $aspeciesism 610 $aableism 610 $ahuman-robot interaction 610 $amind 610 $asense of agency 610 $aalienation 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aBarfield$b Woodrow$4edt$0992579 702 $aBlodgett-Ford$b Sayoko$4edt 702 $aBarfield$b Woodrow$4oth 702 $aBlodgett-Ford$b Sayoko$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557334203321 996 $aHuman Enhancement Technologies and Our Merger with Machines$93026953 997 $aUNINA
