HUMOR FOR ROBOTS ONLY Departing from his usual style, Dr. Simmons writes about the zany adventures of Dr. Alan Rossum, the world's first robotic doctor. The style of the story has been compared to Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. Rossum is a handsome, always helpful, extremely humanlike doctoroid, yethe is also fireproof, wrinkle-proof, germ-retardant, buoyant, fearless, battery-powered, and shrink-resistant. He is the ultimate answer to both the high cost of medicine and to grumpy physicians whotend to run late. Not only can he treat every affliction known to man and some extraterrestrials in a timely manner, but he can perform any operation at record speed. He can also jump higher and run faster than any doctor at Mt. Sinai Hospital, in El Cemento, California. This is his first month on staff and there are a number or bizarre and sinister forces afoot to block his successes. Indeed, to prevent the evolution of robotic medicine.

Accessible, clearly presented, and utterly fascinating, "What Darwin Didn't Know" shows the human body to be a marvelous system constructed by an infinitely wise Designer.
