Rorvik, a science journalist renowned for his provocative inquiries into the cutting edge of biological and technological science, chronicles the accelerating convergence of human biology with machine intelligence — from cybernetics and bionics to the profound philosophical questions of what it means to be human in an age of artificial augmentation.\n\nThis landmark work of science writing argues with unsettling clarity that the merger of man and machine is not a distant fantasy but an inevitable trajectory already underway, driven by forces in medicine, computing, and military research. Rorvik's style is at once rigorously researched and viscerally urgent, pulling the reader through laboratories and ethical quandaries with equal force. Decades after its first publication, As Man Becomes Machine remains a foundational text for anyone grappling with the existential questions of transhumanism — and its most troubling passages feel less like speculation and more like tomorrow's headlines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203256623323,"sku":"2026200015651-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/28a8662f-2d1b-435d-9b4a-16631465fb71.png?v=1788146564","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200015651-secondhand-as-man-becomes-machine","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
