This was a surprisingly interesting read. I wish the story in the third part was actually published. My favorite quote from the second part:

“Natural selection won’t matter soon, not anywhere near as much as conscious selection. We will civilize and alter ourselves to suit our ideas of what we can be. Within one more human lifespan, we will have changed ourselves unrecognizably”

So if you patent a custom made creature, does that mean you "own" it/him/her? Are we on the way to going back to slavery?
