## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fascinating book we should all be reading and discussing
*by R***D on May 2, 2019*

While I pay casual attention to news stories about genetic technology, I had never put it all together to see that this is an inflection point for the whole human race. In Hacking Darwin, Jamie Metzl distills the science down so we can understand it and then highlights the questions we ought to asking ourselves. It is fascinating to see, for the first time, the whole different approach to reproduction and genetic selection that is likely going to be my own children's reality, or at the very least, my grandchildren's experience. I highly recommend this funny, insightful and important book!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The future is a double edged sword
*by A***R on March 11, 2020*

Like it or not, the world is changing rapidly. Jamie Metzl is an accomplished writer, a geopolitical analyst and speaker and an original thinker. His book, Hacking Darwin, might just be a road map to the future of genetic engineering and is a must read for anyone interested in the possibility of creating a species of humans engineered to preplanned specifications. This new and quickly emerging technology can be used to improve our world, lengthen our lives, eliminate disease and generally improve the lives of our species in the future. It could also be used to create a super species that may, one day, try to control the world. Hacking Darwin is filled with easy to understand advances that gives the reader the basic groundwork to understand and, hopefully, contribute to the discussions and decisions that will be made as we learn to use this technology in our scientific planning of tomorrow.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This read will make you stop and think
*by B***S on June 20, 2019*

This is a worthwhile narrative of current trends/status in the fields of ivf, genetic testing, and genetic modification. The author reviews the many potential benefits of reduced personal and community costs of genetic diseases. He also points out many of the areas of social conflict that will likely occur as technology develops to increase probabilities of enhanced intelligence, height, and specific personality traits develop. What choices will we make? A thoughtful read that illuminates the near future. What choices should we make?
