Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In 2050 A.D. the miraculous microscopic machines of nanotechnology have built a clean, prosperous America where disease and hunger are being eliminated. Human beings are saner and safer than they have ever been before.

But the world has become obsessed with the nature of the Self, and as some humans probe more deeply into their own internal landscapes they find that nothing in the country of the mind is simple.

Synopsis:

In the sixth decade of the twenty-first century, Earth has been transformed. Nanotechnology has been perfected, giving humans the ability to change their environment and themselves down to the cellular level. And the study of the mind has brought a revolution in human psychotherapy and artificial intelligence.

It's a sane and perfect world. Almost.
