The author provides facts and myths concerning global warming, as well as a detailed discussion of DNA and its affects on a person’s genetics. He brings forth the fantasies surrounding HIV and AIDS and frees the reader’s mind from any fear concerning these afflictions. The reader is introduced to the human genome and stem cells with their promises for the near future. He details how global warming is a normal cycle that our Earth has followed and is not due to atmospheric carbon dioxide. He insists the Earth will have a cooling period near the turn of the century that will cause more concern than the warming cycle we are experiencing. Each of the subjects is presented in a novel manner that the layman will find entertaining. 3
