About This Book
After a laboratory accident destroys his body, Mel Carlson's brain is kept alive in a tank and interfaced to instruments by his partner, who intends to exploit the disembodied mind. Mel regains awareness through artificial senses and a mechanical voice, discovers heightened mental capacities despite near-paralysis, and is forced to assist with technical problems while nurturing intense hatred and plans for resistance. The narrative probes mind–body separation, the ethical limits of experimental science, and the loss of personal autonomy when consciousness is treated as a resource for another's ambition.
