📢 New Book Series Announcement | Trivent Transhumanism

The latest addition to our Trivent Transhumanism imprint is the interdisciplinary book series ISLAM, SCIENCE AND ETHICS OF EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES, edited by Dr. Hureyre Kam (University of Innsbruck)

This series explores how Islamic intellectual traditions engage with today’s most pressing technological transformations: from artificial intelligence and biotechnology to neuroscience, environmental crisis, and transhumanism. Bringing together theology, philosophy, ethics, and law, the series highlights Islam not as a static tradition, but as a dynamic framework capable of addressing questions of personhood, agency, responsibility, and the future of humanity in a rapidly changing world.

📚 We warmly invite book proposals (monographs and edited volumes) from scholars working at the intersection of Islamic studies, technology, and ethics.
