Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'You want to know who gave you your immortal soul? You want a personal relationship with God? Well, we found God. We're all up in God. We've got God's private number. And so do you: imprinted a hundred trillion times – once in every living cell in your big dripping corpus.' So says a woman with a pole-axe pressed to her neck, and the solution to the entire mystery of human existence clutched between her palms. Two weeks earlier, she was just your average British expat with a PhD, working in Silicon Valley as an artificial intelligence designer for ultra-violent video games, spending the evenings hanging out with her pet chimp – and wondering how something as weird as human consciousness could have evolved through mere Darwinian selection. But when a mysterious and disconcertingly attractive behavioural geneticist, and a hotshot cryptologist with strange religious affiliations, stroll into her life, she begins looking for answers in the backwaters of the human genome – the 97% written off by scientists as ;junk DNA;. And soon after, when men in very strange hats come looking for her hard drive, shooting first and never really asking any questions, she finds herself on the run – pursued by multiple squads of heavily-armed religious zealots, the Feds, and worse. All seek to obtain, or to suppress forever, the key to the revelatory stretch of DNA known as The Pandora Sequence. The outcome of their race to control this explosive secret will forever alter how humanity regards itself - that is, if anyone lives long enough to tell the tale.

Book excerpt: The heavens grieve as Mother Earth frantically fights for her life. The explosions rippled in the heavens allowing destruction to ensue. The undulant impact caused pulsars, quasars, red and blue giant stars to detonate far too soon. The discharge sent repercussions the neighboring nebulas. This place where birth is given becomes a cradle of death. With the last star winking out all of the heavens go dark. Death’s insatiable appetite is heading for Earth. Reaching out its hand and overcome with the desire for human obliteration. One child will stand-alone possessing the power of all universes bringing time and space to a standstill. Born with two souls, blessed with three graces, and having a predator’s heart the heavenly stars will cry out this child’s name. Life ever present and death waning. Lifeblood springs from royalty and the seer of dreams. Where there is despair, hope will shine through. This child is a castle that stands tall in the middle of a storm sheltering all in need. It’s a slayer of monsters, and a warrior for the common man. Spiritual assassins sent to devour this child, breaking its mind is a must do. So begins the battle of wills.

Book excerpt: 'Had God intended Women merely as a finer sort of cattle, he would not have made them reasonable.' Writing in 1673, Bathsua Makin was one of the first women to insist that girls should receive a scientific education. Despite the efforts of Makin and her successors, women were excluded from universities until the end of the nineteenth century, yet they found other ways to participate in scientific projects. Taking a fresh look at history, Pandora's Breeches investigates how women contributed to scientific progress. As well as collaborating in home-based research, women corresponded with internationally-renowned scholars, hired tutors, published their own books and translated and simplified important texts, such as Newton's book on gravity. They played essential roles in work frequently attributed solely to their husbands, fathers or friends.

Book excerpt: Would you cut out your healthy breasts and ovaries if you thought it might save your life? That's not a theoretical question for journalist Lizzie Stark's relatives, who grapple with the horrific legacy of cancer built into the family DNA, a BRCA mutation that has robbed most of her female relatives of breasts, ovaries, peace of mind, or life itself. In Pandora's DNA, Stark uses her family's experience to frame a larger story about the so-called breast cancer genes, exploring the morass of legal quandaries, scientific developments, medical breakthroughs, and ethical concerns that surround the BRCA mutations, from the troubling history of prophylactic surgery and the storied origins of the boob job to the landmark lawsuit against Myriad Genetics, which held patents on the BRCA genes every human carries in their body until the Supreme Court overturned them in 2013. Although a genetic test for cancer risk may sound like the height of scientific development, the treatment remains crude and barbaric. Through her own experience, Stark shows what it's like to live in a brave new world where gazing into a crystal ball of genetics has many unintended consequences.
