Small Doses of the Future: A Collection of Medical Science Fiction Stories

نویسنده: Brad Aiken (برد ایکن)  

Like many fields of science, the future of medicine is frequently predicted by the science fiction writers of today, very much as many of today’s medical advances were presaged by science fiction stories of the past.

In this book, physician and science fiction author Brad Aiken conveys his own speculations about our medical future through nine highly entertaining and thought-provoking short stories. Touching upon a great variety of themes, including but not limited to telemedicine and remote surgery, vaccination strategies against unknown deathly pathogens, nanomedicine to cure diseases and retard ageing, bionics, cloning and euthanasia, we get a glimpse of what might be awaiting humanity.

Goodreads users review :

I don’t even read much fiction these days but I saw ‘medical’ in its title + ‘science fiction’ and the book didn’t disappoint me. Awesome short stories written by someone familiar with seeing patients and knowing their worries and how many of them face their own mortality when getting in the rehabilitation ward. My favorite story by far was ‘Once, on a blue moon’ followed by ‘If only he had a brain’. Anca

For the first time in his life, the solitude Devlin had always sought now felt disquieting rather than calming. Stolen moments alone in the lab or at home had always been a phone ring or door knock away from disruption. But the finality of his self-imposed isolation now sent unexpected pangs through his gut. Sean Randall

A good compilation of anticipation novels. Some very catchy and interesting, others less but all in all a good reading ChevalierBayard

rated it: 3.0 from 5.0

The stories: great, I loved reading them The characters: the only women in the entire collection are wives, nurses, exes, or the potential lover of the main male character. There are not enough women in each story for any of them to pass the Bechdel test. This is an interesting collection of short stories based around medical science fiction, all of it with roots in fact. Ellana Thornton-Wheybrew
