What people on Hacker News said
It's an interesting primer on the potential benefits of synthetic biology to society at large from one of the field's luminaries.
He covers everything from engineering "mirror humans" (with inverted biochemical chirality) to reviving extinct species.
Monbiot's _Regenesis_, which investigates ways in which it might be possible to make global food production both sustainable and affordable, seemed very well written to me.
