Designing Life.  Man has been doing it for over 10,000 years. You may not be aware of it, but we are surrounded by “Superlife," life-forms manipulated by Man. Superlife looks at the stories of how these super organisms came to permeate our planet, and how the latest science is pushing the boundaries to manipulate life for mankind's benefit. The series does not attempt to address the concerns surrounding cloning, genetically modified organisms or the ethics of certain farming practices.

Titles include:

Superfoods
The planet’s population now tops 7 billion. In this environment, Man looks to create more with less time and resources and at a higher quality. Today, the latest science might allow for small fish to bear big fish, or even “grow” meat without the animal.
