Publisher's Note
In this fascinating and provocative postulation on the near-future of genetic technologies, a distinguished scientist and professor presents a powerful examination of the remarkable scientific advances that will irrevocably change human life as we know it. Revealing that human cloning is only the beginning, Lee M. Silver discloses the thrilling yet frightening array of reprogenetic technologies that are virtually inevitable.

Industry Reviews
"No question is too speculative, remote or absurd for Silver, a Princeton University biologist and geneticist who teaches bioethics. He entertains even the wildest and most speculative motions because - as he argues persuasively - the future is already here."
New York Times Book Review - Paul Raeburn (01/11/1998)

"...Silver predicts, genetically enhanced people and "natural" humans will be so different that they will become "entirely separate species with no ability to cross-breed, and with as much romantic interest in each other as a current human would have for a chimpanzee."
Business Week - John Carey (02/02/1998)
