by Bruce Clarke (Author)
From Dr Moreau's "Beast People" to David Cronenberg's "Brundle fly", Stanislaw Lem's robot constructors in the "Cyberiad" to Octavia Butler's human/alien constructs in the "Xenogenesis" trilogy, this work examines stories of corporeal transformation through interlocking frames of posthumanism, narratology, and second-order systems theory.
