The following two chapters will provide a sketch of how a transhumanist intellectual movement developed in the period of approximately 1960–1990 and examine its connections to an earlier historical context, by analyzing the ideas promoted by the new futurists and transhumanists and by focusing on their references and sources. The chapters will discern some of the intellectual roots or origins of the new transhumanism and learn more specifically about what the new futurists and transhumanists had in common with Huxley. The argument is that this can be seen as a time during which Huxley’s vision became more communally adopted and rose to the status of a sociotechnical imaginary. During this process, it adjusted and changed through an ongoing process involving many actors and a changing political climate.
