FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Center For Human Enhancement, a for-profit business venture oriented
towards the self-improvement community (as exemplified by the
Transhumanist movement), made its website officially live on November
30th, 2004.
The URL of the Center's website is http://www.humanenhancement.com
The site's focus is on providing technologies for enhancing mental
abilities "beyond normal" and physical abilities "beyond well"; things
that are eminently practical and can be applied _today_. In addition,
there is an attempt to present a brief overview of what the future will
bring, to give context to the technologies that are currently available.
The site features sections offering books, devices, and supplements
relating to mind-enhancement (nootropics, neurofeedback, and wearable
computing), body-enhancement (life extension, muscular enhancement, and
cosmetic enhancement), fiction and non-fiction relating to the social,
political, and other implications of human enhancement in general. There
is also a daily-updated newswire offering the latest news of
technological innovations that will someday be made available to the
general public.
The product offerings and product lines available will be expanded and
updated as new technologies, supplements, and products become available.
Visitors are actively encouraged to suggest new products that might be
of interest to the site's visitors.
It is hoped that sufficient success with offering those technologies
that are currently available will give impetus for the development of
other such technologies aimed at the retail market, under the more
direct auspices of the Center for Human Enhancement, to make such
technologies available on a widespread basis.
