 | The Shattered Self by Pierre Baldi Baldi, a professor of both information science and biological chemistry, discusses the way that our conception of ourselves is being far outpaced by the bio- and information-technologies that we are rapidly developing. Arguing that our identities are established by certain cultural and biological boundaries that our technologies are slowly dismantling--by way of genetic malleability and super-fast computing--Baldi seeks new ways to understand ourselves.
