| ONE BILLION YEARS FROM NOW . . . Mankind has reached the heights of civilization. Men live thousands of years in perfect freedom and leisure - their wants are attended to by ingenoius machines - peace and culture flourish in ways undreramed of in our time. And yet . . . mankind is dying. The price of peace has been the loss of the needed human qualities of curiosity and drive - they have been bred out of the human race. So when young Alvin of Diaspar began asking questions, he was looked on as a dangerous freak, a throwback. But Alvin kept asking, kept looking, kept seeking out the truth . . . . . . and what he found offered his people a dreadful choice - battle and destruction, or a new and richer destiny! |
