Feb. 26th, 2004 02:42 pmCurrently I am reading Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson.
Among other things, this book has me contemplating the ethics of longevity treatment. At this point, the prospect of a gene-based therapy to stave off the effects of aging appears to be more of a matter of when as opposed to if. The implications of this are far-ranging and deserve attention.
