![]() And thank you to all our young readers for submitting in their creative works for the Get Published in BBC Knowledge initiative. Inside we also have a fantastic conversation with Sunil Khilnani, historian and author of one of the books I have thoroughly enjoyed recently – Incarnations: India in 50 Lives. I know for sure that my 10-year old would be tickled silly reading the latter. I loved the feature on Why Rome Ruled the World (pg 34) and on the History of the Underwear. Not all our features are looking into the future. It is a gripping article, a mini digest of all-you-need-to-know about the journey ‘to build a human’. It is another step towards the direction of pursuing immortality by using robotics and the technology as a supplement to aid natural life. In the story, you will also read about the Russian billionaire who is funding research on how to transfer human consciousness onto a computer. It’s not long before the first working replica of the human brain will be created. Regenerative medicine and biotechnology is making mind-boggling strides - new tissue is being grown in petri dishes, brain mapping is becoming more sophisticated among many other things. How to manipulate life – to extend, to design, to create anew. Our cover story this month, for me, is about the ultimate quest of mankind.
