As the book is fiction, it shows a side effect being that they will "live forever". but as you go through the book it does suggest that the chidlren will grow up to have some mental disorders. (but only hypothetical as it is a fiction book)

Ok, for my Science in society coursework we he have been asked to read a book on science. This could be fiction or non-fiction. The book i am currently reading is called: "Beggars in Spain" by Nancy Kress (fiction). In this book it goes over the story of a group of children called "Sleepless". The Sleepless whilst in the womb were genetically modified to have the ability to not need any form of sleep. The book goes into the children having higher intelligence than ordinary children and most adults. This book has made me want to know more about this kind of genetic testing. So i want to ask you all: What would your opinion be on having your children genetically modified to not need any sleep? Footnote: opinions may be quoted with coursework. But i can assure you that no names will be used in my coursework.
