For science fiction fans these four short stories blend the cutting edge of new technology with the nature of human kindness to produce tales of great contrast and complexity. 'Chaff' takes us on a journey into the South American rainforest where a researcher has bioweapons with extensive powers; 'Beyond the Whistle' uses applied neutral mapping as its theme; 'Transition Dreams' deals with the realms of electronic brains; and 'Our Lady of Chernobyl' takes a futuristic look at the consequences of conflicts born out of disputes between history and progress. This first edition is limited to 500 copies. Includes a bibliography.
