Biology Is Technology is a fascinating, thought-provoking, infuriating, overstated, often contradictory book by Robert Carlson, one of the major proponents and advocates of engineering biological organisms. Carlson aims to create new biologically based technologies as pervasive and economically important as modern electronics and energy technologies. Whether readers think that hacking biological systems to harness them to personal whims is a great idea or the most frightening thing ever proposed, this book is worth reading, pondering, and discussing.
