Opis

A great technocrat honored by modern society, blessed by city virgins for bravery, profundity of wit, keen business acumen, adventurousness of spirit, and superiority of mind, yes, honored in all respects by society, which rewards those who look to the future with an eye towards profitable accumulation of capital investments, namely cash. . . . What is nature to him, which he seeks to vanquish anyway, vanquish all with the exception of electric current, that is, vanquish all also with the exception of chemical equations shaped to serve the master, man, Lord of the Universe. There's only envy of the universe and thoughts of final conquest. So full of himself, this technocrat Robert Baydah. Married; powerful wife; one flawless child; owns penthouses and other properties on dazzling continents filled with penniless natives. Everywhere powerful friends and more powerful allies. He's a space-age gentleman, a product of the sophisticated science of computers in all their manifestations during the last few centuries. Head of a great American computer organization that has its roots into Planet Earth and its orbiting moon, Baydah is submerged in circuit boards, silicon chips, and digital waves that bombard the human brain from every conceivable direction and moment. The goal is to ensure exchange between a solar system of devices and then drive their data into the terabyte region of human existence. Baydah stands behind it until the night heaven calls. Then, everything changes.
