Summary: Typical novel of the fifties
Comment: This book was originaly called :"They'd rather be right" and won Hugo in 1955.The book is typical for those years. The idea is simple: We created something new and of course we do not know what to do next. Should we destroy it or should we worship it or maybe it's just something that should make everybody's lives better? .The book answer those questions and more. If you do not read much science fiction or read only the NEW "STUFF" and you do not usually use your brains , this book is not for you. You would not simply understand why this book was in top twelve most important Sci-fi books ever. However, if you like to think for a change and like the genre, read it and you will not be disappointed.
Rating: 2
Summary: Disapointed
Comment: Book #2 in my read through the Hugo's. While I thoroughly enjoyed "The Demolished Man" by Alfred Bester, this novel comes across as being way too preachy. Seeking a telepathic companion, Joe Carter orchastrates the building of the first super-computer, named Bossy, that has the ability to renew mankind. Wash away their prejudices and preconcieved notions. And, I guess in the view of the authors, create a race of zombies with no convictions. Skip this one if you're looking for classic Sci-Fi.
