In retrospect... bit vapid in places...needs editing and corroborating links

Eek, that quote seems to be to be a bit lengthy. It might (or might not) constitute copyvio, but regardless, the article as it now stands is around 50% written by the book's publisher. Perhaps someone who's read the book could summarise the book's content, so we can ditch the backcover quote. Other than that, this is a great start - thanks! -- Finlay McWalter 16:54, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Yeah, I figured it was too much too. I haven't read the book, and just wanted to get something down quickly. This is definitely only a stop-gap stub.

I wasn't too worried about copyright (perhaps not as much as I should). It amounts to three sentences, IIRC. And it's from what essentially amounts to an ad for the book -- something that's supposed to generate interest in the book. I can't believe that anyone would object to it being used here -- but again, maybe my imagination is just too limited. :-} -Anthropos 23:06, 24 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Do not redir to transhumanism - creates self-link.

This is the name of a book referenced in transhumanism.

I think that matter is resolved, now that we have a moderate superstub for the book itself. -- Finlay McWalter 01:02, 27 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Ah, I see it temporarily became unresolved, and then pleasantly reresolved. Such is life. -- Finlay McWalter 01:23, 27 Dec 2003 (UTC)
