| Abstract Text | The term ‘converging technologies’ refers to a technological vision combining nano-, bio-, and information technologies with cognitive science (NBIC technologies). The main target application field is human enhancement, i.e. the development of technological products which improve human performance. This paper presents a first attempt to assess the opportunities and risks of the NBIC development for the individual, for society and the ecological environment. |
