Sinossi
Michael Chorost became a cyborg when he had a computer surgically embedded in his skull to artificially restore his hearing. Chorost went from deafness to hearing, from human to cyborg. The combination of flesh and computer has long been a science fiction staple, but this memoir outlines how that fantasy is becoming reality.

Recensione
Highly intelligent and searingly honest... Rebuilt is more than just a philosophical exploration of cyborg reality; the narrative drive comes from its human dimension... If all cyborgs are as reflective and compassionate as Chorost we ll be fine. --'The Times'
The Six Million Man was TV fiction but Michael Chorost really has turned into a cyborg. --'Sunday Express'
An amazing story... straight out of a science-fiction book. --Dermot Murnaghan, BBC Breakfast
