Subject: "the Spike" by Damien Broderick is must-buy book!
Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2001 08:38:08 

I have recently gotten my own hardcover copy of "the Spike" by Damien
and I am EXTREMELY impressed by it.  His intelligence and sense
of humor really shines throughout, making it a very fun read.  I
always wanted a book which covered in detail the many fascinating
topics we discuss here and on other cryonics/transhumanist lists and I now 
have it.

The original version of this book came out in Australia in 1996
but sadly did not make it to the United States.  Alot of technological
progress has occurred since then.  But, not to worry, Damien has
greatly updated and rewritten the book to keep well abreast of things.

I hope literally EVERYONE on this list purchases a copy of the book.
Both because it is an excellent read and as a show of loyalty to a gifted 
writer among us.

sincerely,

John
