Gates sputtered and coughed while McKinnon cut his eyes at Marin. "It's a computer program," the Bioethics agent answered for himself and his president. "An assembly of information working together as one unit. It's a model." And what are you assembled from, Douglas?" Marin could not help herself. "What is DNA?" "A nucleic acid molecule." "That does what?" Krumm continued the questioning. "Why," McKinnon shrugged, "it-uh-" "You know what it does." Marin pushed him further into the corner. "It encodes hereditary information. It tells your body how to produce certain enzymes and certain cells. It tells it how to grow amino acids into a complex structure now known as Agent Douglas McKinnon." "It programs," Michael finished. "You are the result of that program. Himmel's virtual man should be no different."

Of Adam
A pretty good first contact story.
Originally published in 1981 the story brings back memories of Cold War tensions between the USSR and USA. Sometimes these seem quaint, sometimes they seem surprisingly current. Part of a trilogy, but good enough on its own. Many of the themes are repeated even in more modern books like John Sandford and Ctein's 2015 Saturn Run.
One of the overall minuses is a certain period-ness of the characters that can be grating. And the fact people keep begging astronauts to NOT go into space gets tedious.
