| 520 | 1 | |a "What are cyborgs? How have they been represented in cinema? And why have they generated such an astonishing degree of critical interest? These are the questions that underpin this book. It asks what relevance the cyborg has in exploring the nature of human identity, questioning our relationship to technology, and speculating on envisaged prospects for the future. It also goes beyond other work in the field by not only evaluating individual texts, but addressing what cyborg films have in common, acknowledging the development they have undergone over the last twenty years, and speculating on the reasons for this transition. This study is not only the most up-to-date analysis of cyborgs, and their variants, in film, but also the first to comprehensively assess cyborg cinema as both an important sub-genre of science fiction, and a definitive cycle in its own rights."--BOOK JACKET. | |
