5.0 out of 5 stars Superb book about immortality, September 1, 2009

This review is from: Timeship: The Architecture of Immortality (Hardcover)

Stephen Valentine's book is a superb milestone. The book is a comprehensive dissertation on immortality, the history, art, practice, architecture, sociology, and practice of immortality. The book is tightly written with no wasted words. The layout and art are stunning. This is a book I wished I could tear out the pages, frame, and mount on my wall. It is an example of great book design.
You may or may not agree with the premise of the book but you will be constantly challenged by the content. This is a mark of a good book. Immortality is an important subject that challenges so much of contemporary thought.
This book is highly recommended because it is the best book of the last 20 years on immortality and because of the beautiful design.

3.0 out of 5 stars I don't get it., September 17, 2009

What do Valentine's science-fictional drawings have to do with the real world of cryonics? Cryonics exists precariously now through a privately financed command-and-control economy, kind of like progressive talk radio in many cities, because the market has rejected it as a waste of resources (cryonics hasn't even risen to the level of a regular business, in other words); yet this guy fantasizes about building a $300 million cryonics fortress. For all the likelihood of that happening on this planet, it wouldn't make any less sense to site his Timeship on Mars.
