The Number One international bestselling author of Jurassic Park,
Congo and Sphere blends fact and fiction to create a near-future
where genetic engineering opens up a whole new world of terrifying,
page-turning possibilities! Bonus feature: Includes a special
Q&A session between Michael Crichton and Jonathan Burnham,
publisher of HarperCollins. Is your loved one missing some body
parts? Are blondes becoming extinct? Is everyone at your dinner
table of the same species? It's 2006: do you know who all your
children are? Do you know humans and chimpanzees differ in only 400
genes? And why does an adult human being resemble a chimp foetus?
There's a new genetic cure for drug addiction -- is it worse than
the disease? Ever want to design your own pet? Change the stripes
on the fish in your aquarium? Ever think to sell your body fat --
or donate it to charity? Or sell your eggs and sperm online for
thousands of dollars? Did you know one fifth of all your genes are
owned by someone else? Come to think of it, could you and your
family be pursued cross country just because you happen to have
certain genes in your body? Welcome to our genetic world. Fast,
furious, and out of control. This is not the world of the future --
it's the world right now. Most of the events in this book have
already happened. And the rest are just around the corner. Get used
to it.
