The message this book conveys is a genuinely, universally altruistic and morally right one, and may help set children's priorities sooner so they can get on the right path and hopefully learn to prioritize an education in; and foster enthusiasm in; matters of cellular and molecular biology, gerontology, biomedical engineering, so as to pursue ways to save their loved ones.

However, I do not believe it to be very engaging, this is something all children should be required to read but I don't think it will have much influence without being a required reading, without parents and teachers making the children become engaged in the utility of life extension education and technologies.

There is nothing else like this out there, yet, and the value of this book is that it allows children to circumvent years of doubting, misdirection, logical obstacles and lies pertaining to the only thing that truly matters in the known universe; the true value of the human life.

Some information catalyzes the saving of life, like this book. If you're thinking of buying it, buy it, of course. Get a bunch of them and spread them around to kids and various children's libraries.

The book isn't too difficult to read, but is informative and interesting as well. Trans-humanism is a difficult topic and very complex for most people to grasp but the book does a good job as an introduction for those who approach such ideas that are seen as very skeptical in our current time.

As a children's book the reading requirements seem to target middle to high-school age and does make some beneficial although unrealistic- at-times expectations where such theories can go.

Nevertheless I would recommend this book as it seems to have the potential to inspire others while young to take a great challenge in understanding where technology can take us. The benefits of a younger,informed, critical generation to embrace and help develop the trans-humanist movement has massive potential. I would recommend this to children and anyone else who is interesting in reading it. Understand that we still live in a tradition-based society and many people will dismiss such notions. This book in the hands of open-minded children and families can help change the world for the better.

I wish this book existed and I had it as a child. It could be possibly made more attractive for really small children - storytelling wise - but this is the best book of this kind there is. Even adults will enjoy a quite realistic vision of a better possible future. It's awesome!

This is the book I wish I read or had read to me as a kid! It really is great to see something that opens our minds to the facts of the situation of death.

All the harm that occurs is due to our compromise with time and it's death that turns the clock faster on us every day. Freedom from involuntary death will give us the time we need to enjoy life without without ever having to miss out on precious moments with the people we love. Image a new generation coming along that will have the opportunity to raise their children in optimal health while taking 20 year or so sabbatical to devote entirely to the people they bring into the world. It will be a generation like none before it and a triumph we as a species haven't yet seen.

This easy to read book will no doubt have a significant impact on the future of mankind. The end of death is coming and you'd be wise to make sure your kids have the right mindset to take their place in the future.

This book is revolutionary. It's meant to change the world. And I think it will.

Mr. Stolyarov attacks the very notion of death as inevitable. And he calls it morally wrong. Altho' it may be initially shocking, what thoughtful or virtuous person can disagree with this? None that I can think of. Certainly none that have read this short but immensely powerful book.

'Death is Wrong' is marketed somewhat for children. And they'll indeed enjoy it immensely. But it seems mostly for adults. No-one over 18 will be bored with it, or find it slow-paced or simplistic. I was hugely educated by it. Who knew that certain animals lived past 500? Or certain plants past 5000? How aware are people of the remarkable successes that have already been achieved with expanding the lifespans of worms, fruit flies, and even mice?

'Death is Wrong' is a radical and wondrous book which couldn't be more important. I found it powerful and brilliant, and I recommend it to everybody!

Fantastic read, even for an adult. Raised religiously, I never once thought of death as being wrong. Since ascending to atheism, I've accepted death as sad yet natural and unavoidable.

Not once have I ever considered that death is wrong; the concept is so obscure that I may never have thought of it myself. Sure, many times I've concluded that "death sucks." and "death is unfair" but that was the extent of my thoughts on the topic.

Now that I'm presented with the idea, I finally get it. Death is wrong. We're finally at a point in human history where we don't have to accept what we've been given naturally. We can decide our own future, we can make more time to do what we've always wanted to do, but never had time for.

Part of this book offered ideas on how one could spend their time, if one could live forever. Knowing that this book is tailored for children readers, I almost put the book down at that point because I don't need ideas on how I could spend extra time! Almost every day I feel like I don't have enough time to do the things I want to do. Regardless, the ideas in the book renewed my interest in several subjects, and sparked interest in subjects I would pursue, if given more time.

I am into space exploration. I thought the only way humans could possibly explore distant galaxies was to create robots who could take the time intensive trip to another place, then relay their experiences back to earth, hundreds or thousands of years later. The decedents of the creators who built the robots and launched the rockets would be able to enjoy the other world experiences, but the creators would be long gone.

If we make the change to remove death, our perception of time will change as well.
