Автор: Aleksi Kuokkanen Название: Constructing Ethical Patterns in Times of Globalization.: Hans Kung`s Global Ethic Project and Beyond. ISBN: 9004205683 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789004205680 Издательство: Brill Цена: 252370.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In the third millennium, people are increasingly being forced to decide how to lead an ethically acceptable life, both nationally and internationally, amidst the radical pluralism of world views. Surprisingly, while the West was a pioneer in the recognition of human rights, its stance towards both exclusivism and difference is distorted. Spurred on the Global Ethic Project of the Catholic theologian Hans Kung, this book searches for a plausible solution to the dilemma of global societal coexistence by carefully analysing the contemporary philosophical discussion. It uncovers the multifaceted ways, in which the standard Western interpretation promotes neutrality towards particular world views, shows why this interpretation is flawed, and presents an alternative with practical implications and an eye towards the global dialogue of cultures.
Автор: Wennemann Daryl J. Название: Posthuman Personhood ISBN: 0761861033 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780761861034 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 131810.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Wennemann argues that the traditional concept of personhood may be fruitfully applied to the ethical challenge we face in a posthuman age. The book posits that biologically non-human persons like robots, computers, or aliens are a theoretical possibility but that we do not know if they are a real possibility.
Автор: D. John Doyle Название: What Does it Mean to be Human? Life, Death, Personhood and the Transhumanist Movement ISBN: 3319949497 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783319949499 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 93160.00 T Наличие на складе: Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book is a critical examination of the philosophical and moral issues in relation to human enhancement and the various related medical developments that are now rapidly moving from the laboratory into the clinical realm. In the book, the author critically examines technologies such as genetic engineering, neural implants, pharmacologic enhancement, and cryonic suspension from transhumanist and bioconservative positions, focusing primarily on moral issues and what it means to be a human in a setting where technological interventions sometimes impact strongly on our humanity.
The author also introduces the notion that death is a process rather than an event, as well as identifies philosophical and clinical limitations in the contemporary determination of brain death as a precursor to organ procurement for transplantation. The discussion on what exactly it means to be dead is later applied to explore philosophical and clinical issues germane to the cryonics movement.
Written by a physician/ scientist and heavily referenced to the peer-reviewed medical and scientific literature, the book is aimed at advanced students and academics but should be readable by any intelligent reader willing to carry out some side-reading. No prior knowledge of moral philosophy is assumed, as the various key approaches to moral philosophy are outlined early in the book.

Автор: Juli L. Gittinger Название: Personhood in Science Fiction ISBN: 3030300617 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783030300616 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 69870.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book addresses the topic of personhood—who is a “person” or “human,” and what rights or dignities does that include—as it has been addressed through the lens of science fiction. Chapters include discussions of consciousness and the soul, artificial intelligence, dehumanization and othering, and free will. Classic and modern sci-fi texts are engaged, as well as film and television. This book argues that science fiction allows us to examine the profound question of personhood through its speculative and imaginative nature, highlighting issues that are already visible in our present world.
