SAVING TED WILLIAMS,

A tale of mystery, intrigue and redemption

By an anonymous reviewer on the Amazon web site

This book reads like it was written by a demented twelve-year-old. Any substantive content present in the book can be found in the two-page introduction. The rest of the book is an attempt to repeat the same message ad nauseam in the context of incoherent plagiarisms and silly, aimless "stories".

Jaffeson says in the introduction that Ted Williams stated in his 1996 Will that he wished cremation and the scattering of his ashes across the Florida Keys. What Jaffeson does not reveal is that Ted Williams changed his mind in favor of cryonic preservation subsequent to the 1996 Will according to the sworn testimony of his closest children -- a son and daughter who were his only desired heirs. Instead, Jaffeson chooses to support the views of an estranged daughter who was specifically disinherited by Ted Williams in Article 3 of the 1996 Will.

Jaffeson seems unable to understand that cryonics makes no absolute claim of revival, but is based upon probable extrapolations of the capabilities of science. He also fails to understand that insurance is based on a legal definition of death, not an "information theoretic death."
