The Age of Living Machines describes some of the most exciting new developments and the scientists and engineers who helped create them. Virus-built batteries. Protein-based water filters. Cancer-detecting nanoparticles. Mind-reading bionic limbs. Computer-engineered crops. Together they highlight the promise of the technology revolution of the 21st century to overcome some of the greatest humanitarian, medical, and environmental challenges of our time.

While I found Dr. Hockfield’s points and examples very important and agreed with virtually all her conclusions, the book’s narrative seemed weak. Possibly a stronger editorial hand would have added structure to her thesis. The use of “I” and “my” was distracting.
The narration was stiff at points, with the narrator pausing before names and scientific terms.
