Tales of the Biotech Revolution

by Brian M. Stableford

It's the new frontier of scientific genetic engineering, the crafting of species, and the self-alteration of man himself. Here are eight stories at the cutting edge of the biotechnology revolution -- "The Tree of Life," "The Skin Trade," "Out of Touch," "Skin Deep," "Carriers," "Rogue Terminator," "Home Front," and "Hidden Agendas" -- crafted by a talented writer who's conducted biological research himself. These tales are filled with memorable characters, unforgettable situations, and bold new ideas.

About the author

Brian Michael Stableford was a British science fiction writer who published more than 70 novels. His earlier books were published under the name Brian M. Stableford, but more recent ones have dropped the middle initial and appeared under the name Brian Stableford. He also used the pseudonym Brian Craig for a couple of very early works, and again for a few more recent works. The pseudonym derives from the first names of himself and of a school friend from the 1960s, Craig A. Mackintosh, with whom he jointly published some very early work.
