About the Book

Night Vision consists of three genetics based science fiction stories. Night Vision Dr. Stephens, a fertility doctor takes advantage of his unsuspecting patients by genetically modifying their embryos. At first he is just eliminating or fixing potential genetic defects, but then he goes a step further to give embryos special characteristics from other species in nature. A friend turns him in and steals his idea, gaining fame and fortune for himself. While Dr. Stephens is in prison, he has a long time to think about how to get revenge and he does in a big way. This story is based on the book, 'Regenerative Medicine and Human Genetic Modification, and the techniques in Night Vision are actual genetic techniques that could be implemented today.Rogue DNA When the United States learns China is developing biological weapons and is planning to develop the world's largest marketplace for biologic code and tools, the U.S. makes the decision to build a better version so as to take control of the market and take out China's marketplace in a cyber-attack in the interest of national security. However, even if the Americans destroy the biologic exchange, China still has many military and non-military options for retaliation that range from economic attacks to cyber and biological destruction, all of which would seriously damage the United States.UnDesignedTakes place at a time when there are two types of people in society; those who are designed, the elite as they were designed from their DNA up and those whose genetic structure was left to chance and nature. Jenna is a high powered attorney at a major law firm. She represents the Designer industry from the doctors, and clinics, to hospitals and insurance companies. As such she has high profile cases that take her to the Supreme Court to congressional hearings and every place in between
About the Author: Ed Gaskin helped develop the business plans for Geron Corporation, a pioneer in anti-aging research using embryonic stem cells, therapeutic cloning and telomerase inhibition, Origen Therapeutics where he was a board member, and Cyagra, LLC. He was a consultant to Advanced Cell Technology, and served on their IRB board. He was a member of the life sciences practice at Deloitte Consulting, where he was the lead advisor for companies such as Parexel International. He has done consulting for companies ranging from Kaiser Permanente and Harvard Pilgrim Health Care to IBM's health care practice. His focus is on the future of health care, new ventures, innovation, and disruption in health care and life sciences. He has a Master of Science in Management degree from MIT's Sloan School of Management and a M.Div. from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary where his focus was on contemporary theology and ethics. We have the ability to genetically modify humans with genetic code from plants, insects, and animals to provide humans functionality that has never existed such as night vision or sonar. We could create novel characteristics that previously only comic book superheroes or villains had. We have the ability to self-direct the evolution of the human species by programing our genetic code in a similar way we program computer code and create apps for our smart phones. We can use this technology to treat chronic, genetic and even infectious diseases. This ability to treat disease or enhance human characteristics will revolutionize biotech in the same way digital technology has changed the world in the last 15 years. There are dangers, as genetic code can be "hacked" and gene "doping" is a real possibility. "I believe should have a national discussion on this topic," says Ed Gaskin
