That '70's Transhumanism
While F.M. Esfandiary receives a lot of credit for anticipating the current transhumanist world view with his 1973 book "Up-Wingers," Robert Ettinger made a somewhat more substantial but less well known contribution when he published his book "Man Into Superman" in 1972 as a follow-up to his 1964 book "The Prospect of Immortality," which started the cryonics movement. Of these two 1970's ...

The Oxford Starter ...

The First and Central Text
This is the clarion call for cryonics in its pre-natal stage. This was the first widely read book on the subject and as such is by default the genesis of the cryonics cannon. Any serious student of cryonics needs this book. It is not nearly as readable or as "slick" as other modern books on the subject , as it was written at a time before there we any signposts to go by in this field. I ...
