Transhumanism ultimately is a philosophy, which of course can and should be
learned, as for any other school of thought, by investigating its history
and the positions expressed by its authors and representatives, and I have
helped myself a student to prepare a doctorate thesis on the subject.

Transhumanism-relevant technologies or trends are of course an altogether
different subject, which can hardly be reduced to a single research field.
