About This Book

A spaceman quits his career to marry and back his partner in opening a psychiatric clinic that will exploit her invention: a microscopic device that implants a new personality to cure maladjustment in minutes. As the couple pursues financial security and scientific promise, the protagonist faces unexplained absences, ethical doubts, and the rising influence of greedy corporate cartels that shape society. The narrative alternates personal uncertainty and professional ambition with social critique, examining how rapid personality modification, commercial exploitation, and monopolistic power collide in a future marked by psychological malaise and contested control.
