    The incredible and inspiring book behind the primetime Channel 4 documentary, Peter: The Human Cyborg

    'Peter's story is one of the most extraordinary you will ever hear. Remarkable. I urge people to read it' Stephen Fry

    'With candour and bravery, Peter tells how he explored new frontiers of science to give himself a chance of survival in a digital afterlife' Daily Mail

    Peter didn't choose to live forever. He simply chose not to die.

    Diagnosed with a rare but terminal Motor Neuron Disease, brilliant scientist Peter Scott-Morgan refused to accept that within a few short years he'd be dead.

    Instead, he embarked on a dangerous journey - to cross the border between mortality and immortality.

    He would meld his humanity with the latest computer and robotic technology to become Peter 2.0.

    This is the astonishing story of a man uniquely placed to pursue a new way of life that would not only alter him but perhaps redefine what it means to be human forever.
