This book examines Fuller¿s pioneering vision of social epistemology. It focuses specifically on his work post-2000 which is founded in the changing conception of humanity and project into a ¿post-¿ or ¿trans-¿ human future. Chapters treat especially Fuller¿s provocative response to the changing boundary conditions of the knower due to anticipated changes in humanity coming from the nanosciences neuroscience synthetic biology and computer technology and end on an interview with Fuller himself. While Fuller¿s turn in this direction has invited at least as much criticism as his earlier work to him the result is an extended sense of the knower or ¿humanity 2.0¿ which Fuller himself identifies with transhumanism. The authors assess Fuller¿s work on the following issues: Science and Technology Studies (STS) the university and intellectual life neo-liberal political economy intelligent design Cosmism Gnosticism agent-oriented epistemology proactionary vs precautionary principles and Welfare State 2.0.
