      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.
