Więcej o książce

Imagine Aliens making first contact...and mankind going mad. Crazy like foxes in a well-stuffed henhouse. Alien technology to be had for nothing, technology that so outstrips ours that we don't understand what it means still less how it works.Enter Algernon Hebster, head of Hebster Securities and the only businessman to see the Aliens for the babes in the woods they are. Imagine trading permanently spotless, sanitary surface-making technology for blueprints of the Empire State Building and a hundred paperback copies of Moby-Dick! Who cares how it works? Who cares why they want what they want? Not Hebster when he can make a huge profit off the Aliens' trinkets.But Humanity First cares, and they care enough to mount a rebellion against Hebster and his uneasy allies in the world government United Mankind. What's a simple businessman to do when confronted by a lynch mob of zealots and a government inclined to watch while the mob does its worst?
