Summary:

"The Reinvented Heart explores non-male perspective on relationships, genders and attitude as rapidly advancing technology reshapes our society. It presents stories that complicate sex and gender by showing how shifting technology may affect social attitudes and practices, stories that include relationships with communities and social groups, stories that reinvent traditional romance tropes and recast them for the 21st century, and above all, stories that experiment, astonish, and entertain."--Dust jacket flap.
