Cloning, Fiction and Reality
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This is the most literate book I have read recently that deals with cloning as fiction. The suspense is Hitchcockian--gruesome details are left to the imagination. The science is correct, a rarity in fictional works based on cloning. Burton deals with psycholigical effects on a group of 10 men who discover as adults that they are clones.I highly recommend this book. If you are sick of gratuitous violence and sex, but want a good story; this is the book for you.
Burton knows his stuff
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
As the former Chief of Neurology at Mount Zion Medical Center, Burton knows his stuff. While Burton' second novel, Doc-in-a-Box, shows off his medical expertise, Cellmates does it in a subtle way that is compelling and informative, without being overdone. The scariest thing about Cellmates is that it's based on reality. What would you do if you woke up tomorrow and found there were nine identical "you's" running around? Now, what would you do if one of the nine is a socio-path set out to kill his brothers? Read Cellmates
Cellmates is a great thriller: 10!!

Given all of the recent publicity surrounding the cloning of humans, I picked up Robert Burton's new book, Cellmates. This is a fast, furious read that not only makes you think about it's inevitable possibilities, but also the repercussions.
