The Transhumanism Handbook by Newton Lee is a book that contains many well-known studies from scholars all over the world. This book gives the readers a detailed guide on how the future of humanity could be improved. This book discussed many kinds of technologies that could make humanity much happier and healthier. Furthermore, this book gave us a long-term solution to several biggest issues that we face on earth so we could ensure our survival mode. For instance, physical and mental health. This book emphasized on rejuvenation of our mind and body through science and technology, so that humanity will have an immune to all diseases. This book believes that our lifespan could be extended much longer, rejuvenation, and death could become optional. Artificial Intelligence could improve the human condition, and nanotechnology to resolve environmental problems from irresponsible humans and natural disasters. However, there were many limitations to these kinds of things, such as rules, laws, and religions.

The writing style of the studies in this book was easy to understand by readers. This book had successfully maintained my interest and made me want to read this book repeatedly. The topics that were discussed in this book were fantastic. It could draw a lot of attention from many people. This book was very educational for people who want to know about human conditions and social sciences from different perspectives. Also, the studies in this book weren't too heavy, which means this book would be easy to read by readers. The author even provided the source of each study in this book.

What I don't like about this book is I don't agree with some of the contents of this book. For instance, I thought that death couldn't become optional because I believed death couldn't be avoided. Many people live long, but no one lives forever. Also, this book has too many pages, even though it has various kinds of topics.

In the end, I found this book to be a pretty enjoyable and captivating read, especially during the current pandemic. It left me with a lot to think about. No errors were found in this book, which means this book has been perfectly edited. On that note, I will rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I appreciated the author's effort to make this book because I thought it would be very difficult to make this kind of book.

I would recommend this book to people who enjoy philosophy. Also, this book would make a good read for people who want to know the future of humanity.
