Predictor

Increasingly, we are finding that the unique characteristics that make each one of us as an individual, from our basic physical attributes to the complexities of our personality, can be traced back to the subtle mix of genes we receive at the moment of conception. But how much do these genes actually predict our destiny? And how much can that destiny be changed throughout our lives? The genetic age has opened up a realm of possibilities. Will we be able to read our own lives before we live them, predict our deaths and rewrite the story that is written in our genes?

The Secret of Sex

Before science put it under microscope, sex was a simple, uncomplicated thing. You could not build humans without it. All you needed was a man, a woman, a liberal sprinkling of lust and Mother Nature did the rest. But is that now a terribly old-fasioned way of making new human? In the future we’ll able to build humans in tanks, make copies of ourselves in labs and even have the power to change the course of our genetic destiny by turning women into men. If kissing is nothing more than a way of sniffing out compatible genes, what is the point of sex, and will it ever be the same again?

The search for eternal life is now being taken seriously. A number of tantalizing and remarkable discoveries indicating how to stop the human body aging are about to turn science fiction into reality. The key lies inside every cell in our body. Scientists now believe they will be able to extend the human life span to 150 years. Is this the first step of immortality?
