“Transdisciplinary endeavours such as Neuro-Techno-Philosophy can teach us a lot about human frailty and malleability. By understanding our neurochemical motivations, neurobehavioural needs, fears and predilections, and the neuropsychological foundations underpinning the behaviour of states, we are better placed to navigate the challenges posed by contemporary geopolitics and global security.” PhilosophyHuman NatureNeuroscienceGeopoliticsNeuro Techno PhilosophyTransdisciplinary PhilosophyGlobal Security Author:Nayef Al-Rodhan
“Deeper integration of technology within the body, as well as the use of neuro-technological and neuropharmacological means of enhancing our bodies could affect how we feel and think – and therefore also how we act on the battlefield. While enhancement may boost cognitive and physical capabilities, they also diminish some deeply human features like compassion and empathy, that have been pivotal to us as a species, both for survival and cooperation.” TechnologyHuman NatureEmpathyNeuroscienceCognitionHuman Enhancement TechnologiesNeuro Techno Philosophy Author:Nayef Al-Rodhan
