Body augmentation

Body augmentation as a book category covers stories that explore the modification or enhancement of the human body—through cybernetics, prosthetics, genetic engineering, neural interfaces, biohacking, drugs or external exoskeletons—and the personal, social and ethical consequences that follow. It ranges from gritty cyberpunk and near‑future techno-thrillers to speculative literary fiction and medical or legal dramas, and can be grounded in realistic science or push into more fantastical transhuman possibilities. Common themes include questions of identity and embodiment, access and inequality, consent and surveillance, corporate or governmental control, and what it means to be human when bodies can be redesigned. Protagonists might be augmented willingly or forcibly, dealing with physical rebellion, psychological change, new abilities, or loss, and plots often hinge on the interplay between technology, power and personal agency.
