Joshua Son of None by Nancy Freedman

Description: Joshua Son of None by Nancy Freedman The better half of Mrs. Mike has soloed all on her own into Crichton territory & her story preempts your curiosity to begin with & then is ambushed with all the procedures & more doubtful morality of the brave new medical world. When, in 1963, a President (nameless throughout) lies dead, a few live cells from his body are retained by a dedicated scientist-devout atheist, Thor Bittenbaum. With the financial resources of an aggressive young millionaire, Kellogg, a child becomes the first...in his image ("genesis in a petri dish," artificial insemination & birth the natural way) & brought up clan-style, not tennis & social graces. When Josh learns part of the truth he runs away but eventually returns to be programmed for his manifest destiny--another presidency, another guess what... Even if the 1st donee suffers visibly thru all of this, & Freedman draws God into the argument, it's essentially pop melodrama of life, death & their "viable alternatives" in a suspension of suds. Clonees and donees--reasonable expectations both.--Kirkus 5.1 Most books in our shop are vintage, unread items that may have signs of shelf wear, etc. Please view products photos prior to purchasing as every item has photos of item exactly as they are.
