John Ordell, a young scientist, moves to Washington, DC and wants to work in biotechnology using the cutting-edge gene editing innovation called CRISPR. He is drawn into a money making scheme driven by greed , corporate espionage and international intrigue, all while harnessing the incredible power of CRISPR . The science is real, frightening and easily misapplied. This book scrutinizes what could go wrong when people and governments toy with CRISPR, a technology which makes Darwinian evolution obsolete and can change the nature of what it is to be human. John, his co-conspirators and other foreign actors use artificial intelligence and supercomputers, and combine it with CRISPR to great effect - but is humanity ready for this new era of ReEvolution?This novel explores human nature and its ability to deal with this explosive technology. It examines how CRISPR works, its unlimited potential and how advances in computer technology can combine to make this period a turning point in human history. It is a must read in this day and age when the birth of healthy genetically engineered twins is announced on U-tube by a Chinese scientist instead of in respected journals. It is an exploration of the perils facing humanity at this precipitous time
