This groundbreaking new book explores the social consequences and provocations of a digitally replicable subject in the current sociopolitical context. It thereby confronts a timeless philosophical question, imbued with ever greater urgency in our digital age: What does it mean to be human?  Redefining Eternity establishes the motivations of digital and information technologies in creating “immortalization” through social and modal engagement with these new media. By analyzing various digital services currently promoting immortality, both intentionally and unintentionally, and engaging with texts by transhumanists and technologists such as Ray Kurzweil, Martine Rothblatt, and Max More, this endeavor allows for critical interpretation of the key terminologies, processes, and intentions for an immortal digital being. Crawford’s findings offer a dynamic foundation for conceptual analysis of the ramifications of “living forever” as a digital post-death self.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52332019450129,"sku":"NLS9781680539646","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781680539646.jpg?v=1763480918"},{"product_id":"preventing-identifying-and-treating-diseases-in-dairy-cattle-book-bethany-crawford-9781639874484","title":"Preventing, Identifying and Treating Diseases in Dairy Cattle","description":"Dairy cattle are the cattle cows bred in order to produce large quantities of milk in order to produce various dairy products.
