Über diesen Titel

 Is a loved one missing some body parts? Are blondes becoming extinct? Is everyone at your dinner table of the same species? Humans and chimpanzees differ in only 400 genes; is that why an adult human being resembles a chimp fetus? And should that worry us? There's a new genetic cure for drug addiction - is it worse than the disease?

We live in a time of momentous scientific leaps; a time when it's possible to sell our eggs and sperm online for thousands of dollars or test our spouses for genetic maladies. We live in a time when one fifth of all our genes are owned by someone else, and an unsuspecting person and his family can be pursued cross-country because they happen to have certain valuable genes within their chromosomes.

Devilishly clever, Next blends fact and fiction into a breathless tale of a new world where nothing is what it seems, and a set of new possibilities can open at every turn. Next challenges our sense of reality and notions of morality. Balancing the comic and bizarre with the genuinely frightening and disturbing, Next shatters our assumptions and reveals shocking new choices where we least expect.

The future is closer than you think. Get used to it.

    Rather than being one clear narrative, this is really about 10 short stories on a similar theme (scary genetic science) jumbled together. It's not until you're passed the halfway point that any of these stories come together. Dave the Chimp/human hybrid is the best part of the story, but doesn't arrived until about 3 hours into this 6.5 hour audiobook. There are two young boys called Jamie, which is MEANT to be confusing... but it meant that I stopped listening while I was trying to work it out... However, this is really well researched and genuinely scary at times. The performance is excellent! His voice really makes the characters distinct and vivid. I loved the bonus interview with Crichton at the end, as this was his last published book published before he died, I got quite emotional listening to him!

    Jumbled Crichton, but still great science thiller!
