From the cover: "Death is an imposition on the human race, and no longer acceptable," reads the first sentence of this extraordinary book. Within the last few years "[W]e have circled the moon, harnessed nuclear energy, artificially reproduced DNA, and now have the biochemical means to control birth; why should death itself, the Last Enemy, be considered sacred and beyond conquest?"
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
