Sex in the Future: The Reproductive Revolution and How It Will Change Us by Robin Baker
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 1.3MB
Overview: Robin Baker is one of the people who brought us the notion of kamikaze sperm: valiant but impotent swimmers who sacrifice themselves so that one (or more) of their brethren–as opposed to some other guy’s sperm–will secure a man’s genetic legacy. In Sperm Wars, Baker told us that the evolutionary drive of our biology determined with whom we mated. In Sex in the Future, he speculates on how. Using the same format of fictionalized scenarios followed by more factual discussion, Baker peers into his sociobiological crystal ball to forecast how we might reproduce in the future, and what it will do to our society. Baker sees the multiplication of assisted reproductive technologies as a social revolution. Sex, love, and reproduction will be divorced. The concept of heterosexuality will be practically meaningless. Children will be commissioned in a much more precise way than can now be done either through mate selection or gamete selection. Sex in the Future is certainly provocative.
