2.0 out of 5 stars
ok as a basic book but pretty uninspired,
This review is from: Becoming Immortal: Nanotechnology, You, and the Demise of Death (Hardcover)
This is a good general introduction to cryonic and nanotech life extension, but barely touches on a lot of the issues therein. Clearly written to be a popular piece instead of a "substantial" one. The Socratic question-and-answer format makes it seem more of a straw-man argument than one would hope. There are many better books on nanotech out there, and though I applaud the author for trying to raise public awareness of cryonics as legitimate science, he goes too far towards pop culture.

This review is from: Becoming Immortal: Nanotechnology, You, and the Demise of Death (Hardcover)
This is a very basic and easy to understand book that you can read in 1-4 sittings depending on how fast you read. It is a great introduction to immortality with nanotech and cryonics for any newcomers to the field.
