A human as the frontier of science of the present
and science of the future

The article presents author’s own interpretation of human being as a boundary between
modern and future science and education. Traditional science and education were creat-
ed and used by humanity to explore and conquer the nature, without transforming the
human nature itself. The science of the future will be based on the transformation of man,
improvement of his corporeality, on the destruction of the boundaries of human as natu-
rally prescribed. The situation of the present should be viewed not only as a consequence
of previous historical development, but also as a state that is formed from the future. The
conclusion is substantiated that man's comprehension of himself creates the necessary
frontier between the science of the present and of the future. In social and humanitarian
knowledge and the educational system, there is no reflection on the essence of man and
the consequences of his transformation by means of genetic technologies, NBIC-
convergence, transplantology. The author considers the prospects of science to be asso-
ciated with the humanitarian and philosophical reflection on the processes of human
transformation.
Keywords: science, social and humanitarian knowledge, human, human improvement,
human nature, philosophy of science, philosophy of education
