Prophetic words are never easy to hear. But for those who are willing to ponder the complex truths of how our digital world is changing us all, you'll find Oesch's book takes a lifetime of cutting-edge academic work and presents it in a wonderfully conversational, user-friendly discussion framework. I wouldn't be surprised if Crossing Wires became the new 'must-read' for book clubs, thinktanks, and Bible studies in 2021! --Heather Choate Davis, author of Man Turned in on Himself This book is as urgently relevant as it is fascinating. An increasing number of my students have said to me that Transhumanism presents an attractive and viable alternative to Christianity. For them, it offers a shot at concrete, this-world fulfillment of classical Christianity's eschatological promises such as the overcoming of death, suffering, and ignorance. Oesch is informed about his subject, analyzes it with theological acumen, and guides the reader through a profound, but accessible exploration. --Jeff Mallinson, Chair and Professor of History and Political Thought Concordia University, Irvine
