How to Defeat Your Own Clone is a decently funny book. After all, where else are you going to read about how to defeat the various types of clones you might encounter - age accelerated clones, enhanced clones, mind-linked clones, etc. But it's also a decent nontechnical intro to biotechnology and all its various applications in cloning and bioengineering. Kurpinski and Johnson make what could be a dry, technical subject fun while lending a sense of realism to what is often an emotionally and politically charged subject. ( )
