Book Synopsis The Cyborg Caribbean by : Samuel Ginsburg
Book excerpt: The Cyborg Caribbean examines twenty-first-century Cuban, Dominican, and Puerto Rican science fiction, showing how it negotiates legacies of techno-colonialism and techno-authoritarianism. It traces histories of four different technologies--electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), nuclear weapons, space exploration, and digital avatars--that have transformed corporality and humanity in the Caribbean.
