A New Species, Made To Order Just a few hundred genes separate humans from chimpanzees. Suppose you altered chimp DNA, creating a new species of worker, somewhere between simian and human? SimGen, a powerful new corporation, has done just that. Using their patented "sim" genome, they have begun breeding sims by the hundreds, leasing them out to serve as cheap manual labor in factories and sweatshops. There are protests, of course, but somehow SimGen has managed to quash any attempts to ban or regulate the production of sims-as young lawyer Patrick Sullivan is about to discover. But SimGen has secrets, beyond their patents and proprietary technology. Dreadful secrets they will go to any lengths to protect....Wilson, F. Paul is the author of 'Sims', published 2004 under ISBN 9780765344632 and ISBN 0765344637.
