Mindclone asks the question, What if you had your brain scanned and
all your memories and your entire persona were uploaded to a
digital version of yourself? How would you and your Mindclone get
along? How would your Mindclone feel about the fact that he has all
your memories and desires--including a desire for the girl you just
met--but no physical body to act on them? For him, that's a serious
bummer. Mindclone shows some possible consequences of the first
successful upload of a human mind to a computer: it's a novel of
ideas about what it means to be human whether or not you have a
body. It explores the science behind the uploading concept, the
implications of mindcloning and the digital "singularity" that's
been famously predicted by futurist Ray Kurzweil. Plus there's a
carbon-carbon-silicon love triangle, a redeemed ad-man, adventure,
humor, frustrated romance, human and digital foibles, and as an
extra added bonus, the defeat of death itself.
