Extension of Man

"Extension of Man" is a concept by scientist and philosopher Julian Huxley, referring to how humans enhance their natural abilities through technology, science, and culture. It highlights the ways we use tools, knowledge, and social systems to expand our physical, intellectual, and social capacities beyond innate limits. This extension allows us to manipulate our environment, communicate globally, and improve our quality of life, effectively amplifying what humans can achieve unaided. In essence, it describes the ongoing process of human progress driven by innovations that extend our natural potential.
