Reaching for Immortality: Can Science Cheat Death? [PDF ebook] 
A Christian Response to Transhumanism

Support
At the forefront of science and technology there lie competing ideologies as to the nature of humanity and the future of human flourishing. Will technology become the ultimate savior, or has the work of salvation already been accomplished? Are we only creatures of mind and body or are we spiritual beings at our core?
Reaching for Immortality bravely examines the agenda and ideals of the transhumanist movement, and compares and contrasts these with the biblical vision of a physical resurrection and a divine upgrade of the entire created order. Which vision of the future will inspire you, and capture your allegiance? This book is a primer to provoke deep thought about the impact of technological change on human personhood, and asks crucial questions facing our age:
-What does it mean to be human, in light of exponential technological growth?
-What is transhumanism and where is it leading us?
-How important is embodiment for our personal identity?
-How would the biblical understanding of personhood survive in a posthuman future?
