Authors Casey Griffin and Nina Nesseth decode the mysteries of Orphan Black - from the history of cloning, epigenetics, synthetic biology, chimerism, the real diseases on which the clone disease is based, and the transhumanist philosophies of Neolution, to what exactly happens when a projectile pencil is shot through a person's eye and into their brain."--,Provided by publisher.
