Synopsis
|
In
1933. the
physicist Kapitza
ordered, for the
facade of his new
laboratory, a
crocodile's head,
in steel.
The crocodile of
science.
The crocodile
cannot turn its
head. Like
science, it must
always go forward
with all-devouring
jaws. The
inevitable logic
of discovery
marches to
inescapable
conclusions.
But must it?
Can the future be
manipulated?
At the Colindale
Institute they
knew that control
was
possible. By
the
Institute.
But only if the
fact of control
and the techniques
of control were
kept absolutely
secret. |
