Leda Cosmides talks about tranhumanism



Leda Cosmides gives a calm, reasoned view of transhumanism and points out that while we're far from putting our brains into a computer and living forever, we do use a good deal of body modifications and augmentations in day to day life. She also does a good job of tempering some of the wilder notions of the transhumanist movement. Leda is one of the most important evolutionary psychologists in the world and a great lecturer, you will enjoy this, I proimise. Open in iTunes so you might have to make sure it's open first.
