I have purchased it, even though I have not had time to read it yet.

OTOH, how can a book with a title such as "A Transhumanist Manifesto" be
anti-transhumanist, as per Natasha's request? "Critical" may simply mean
"in-depth, accurate", ma "criticism" does not sound as a applicable to
neutral or favourable commentaries...
