What could possibly go awry with the advent of CRISPR genetic engineering? This novel is a fascinating exploration of the impact of technology on humanity. As with previous scientific breakthroughs such as nuclear and IT, genetic engineering will have double-edged implications. First-time author Dr. Mark Ryall beautifully crafts this reality through the lives, feelings, and struggles of several compelling characters in the near future. It’s a future he forecasts for you, for all of us. The story’s heroine is Nobel-winning genomicist Dr. Frieda Sengmeuller, who invents age-decoding - a genetic engineering method to stop human aging. When most humans are age-decoded in the year 2053, Authority leaders secretly use CRISPR to entrench their power by removing people’s propensity to dissent . They contain Frieda underground for two centuries and force her to research reverse-aging . Frieda’s daughter Ximena teams up with government insider Tavon Brooks in a desperate attempt to rescue her.
This literary work depicts the moral and political challenges humans could face with the impending tsunami of genetic engineering.
