| Sumario: | Some authors generally identified or close to transhumanist positions, have proposed to morally enhance the human being with biotechnological means and drugs, even compulsively.

This work aims to show this ambiguity from two sources that explain it, called the deficit of totality and the deficit of freedom. |
