The fictional core of this book was written in May of 1986 in three days and copyrighted on June 11, 1986. The bulk of the book was written over the ensuing years to mid 2009. Part fiction and part memoir, it documents the zeitgeist of the era especially as regards politics and the emerging biotechnologies. And the conjunction of the two. Meant from the beginning to be both descriptive and predictive, in several concrete particulars the work has proved prophetic. In both intentional and unanticpated ways. Especially as regards the prediction of the emergence of a killer common cold virus with HIV/AIDS similarities. This of course occurred with the SARS outbreak.
