Review of Genes of the Past

[Moddesser Elahi]

I am into sci-fi novels. I would like to read this novel written by a retired scientist. The author has written this story regarding an imaginary olfactory superpower discovered in fossils.

Hi @Reva Parker, I just read your comments on the official review of "Genes of the Past" by Christer Jansson and I would like to suggest that you include more depth to your comments so that the administrative reveiw team can see that you read the official review and the sample, i.e. This is a sci-fi story about the remains found in the 1960s in the Moroccan desert, of a hominin fossil that died 550,000 years ago. Upon analysis of the fossil’s cranium, they also discover proteins of unknown function. The doctors and researchers speculated that men in the distant past had a different form of communication. A brilliant scientist named Symphony. a.k.a. Ludvig Bertil Thoven, a Swedish ex-pat, is the main character and by the end of the story different scenarios will be developed for commercializing the Olfactor Receptor proteins found in the DNA. The narrator of the story repeats his feelings about food and how much he dislikes his boss, Rosy Boyd. The prologue describes how the hominin was found when Felix Fleishmann was taking photos of birds with his Kodak Instamatic camera and he stumbled and the camera fell through lose soil. Rummaging through the soil trying to feel for the camera he finds an eye socket. After the remains are removed from this area that consists of dead animals and people, the intact cranium is sent to a lab for forensic study. The detail provided kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what they will find. They named the area the remains were found “Fat Man’s Cave”. This is an amazing story filled with facts, theories and humor. The facts are scientific terms that refer to gene sequences. Members should enjoy this book. @Mrlefty0706
