Abstract

If prehistorical humanity refers to primitive human existence prior to the emergence of the earliest civilizations, the term post-historical humanity refers to a projected future condition of humanity—a radically transformed condition by comparison with the present state. The expected transformation is usually described as an improvement or enhancement of existing human capacities, and the hope for such an improvement is connected primarily with the promises of modern science.
