Reveals the insidious effects of the language men use to speak about manhood. Peter F. Murphy’s purpose in this book is not to shock but rather to educate, provoke discussion, and engender change.

These metaphors men live by, Murphy contends, reinforce the view that re

The idea behind Kurzweil and Grossman’s Fantastic Voyage is that if you can make it through the next 50 years, you might become immortal. How will that be possible? Through some rather science fictional steps, it turns out, including taking advantage of the latest in biotechnological breakthroughs and not-yet-invented nanotechnology. Is all this longing for immortality driven by an obsession with youth or a fear of death? Readers can judge for themselves, as both Kurzweil and Grossman reveal the personal histories that led them to develop this plan. Fantastic Voyage is written in an easy
