Page - 41 - in Cyborg Mind - What Brain–Computer and Mind–Cyberspace Interfaces Mean for Cyberneuroethics

Presentation of the Brain–Mind Interface • 41 This environment, for instance, includes the influences that may arise if the mind is fused with cyberspace through a direct neuronal interface appliance. Of course, such interfaces are relatively unsophisticated at present, but they will be considered in the following chapter in order to examine how informa- tion may be directly obtained and provided to the brain.
