Description
Cyborg Babies: Exploring the Intersection of Technology and Childhood This book examines the growing influence of technology on the lives of children, from conception to birth and beyond. It delves into the cultural and psychological implications of this phenomenon, exploring how our notions of fetal health, maternal risk, and child development are increasingly intertwined with technological advancements. Through a range of ethnographic analyses, critiques, and personal narratives, Cyborg Babies sheds light on the ways in which technology is shaping the reproductive choices and experiences of parents. The book considers the impact of technologies such as sperm banks, IVF, surrogacy, ultrasound, and computer simulation games on children's emergent consciousness. By examining the intersection of technology and childhood, Cyborg Babies offers a unique perspective on the evolving nature of human culture and psychology.
