To Noah's surprise, the approval also requires the presence of an onsite observer—who happens to be his former rival from graduate school.

What might happen if a superior race of humans was genetically engineered? How would it be engineered? What would they look like? How would they interact with other humans? How would they change society? Synthetics Rising is the story of an experiment to create better humans. The idea is to engineer humans who are not prone to making selfish, irrational, and emotional decisions-individuals capable of leading the world with logic and reason. Their genes are designed to make them not only highly intelligent and athletic but also unselfish, rational, and especially objective.
