Literary Nonfiction. Fiction. Hybrid Genre. You do everything on your smartphone and love it-you are, now and forevermore, a cyborg. But how would you know if you were a good cyborg? Game designer and philosopher Chris Bateman explores cyborg virtue through problems such as cyberbullying, "fake news," and the indifference of computers to human needs. Bateman reveals our shallow-sightedness in the face of the unfathomable complexity of our cybernetic networks. Critical yet optimistic, THE VIRTUOUS CYBORG rises to the challenge of the twenty-first century by asking us to ponder the question of what kind of cyborgs we want to become.
