Beskrivelse av varen
Flott hardpermbok på engelsk fra 1972. Smussomslaget er slitt men selve boken er i god stand.
Michael Crichton once again combines documentary verisimilitude with hair-raising suspense to open up for the reader a new area of modern science: surgical-electronic mind control.
The man "in the hands of science" —the Terminal Man—is Harry Benson. He is a violent paranoid who has already twice attempted to kill. Against the profound opposition of his psychiatrist, a team of surgeons proposes to connect his brain to a computer that will regulate his behavior. From the conflict among the doctors, to the actual operation itself-during which forty wires are attached to forty points in Benson's brain-to the functioning of the computers, to the terrifying results when Benson escapes from the hospital, the tension rises as the reader becomes a close-up witness to an experiment just short of the ultimate computer control of a human being
Psychosurgery of the kind Crichton describes is already taking place under established medical auspices—a new form of behavior control that has become a key scientific and moral issue in our time. Crichton takes it out of the realm of the abstract, and makes immediate its workings, its dangers, and its im-plications, in a novel that provides urgent information and, at the same time, superb entertainment.
