Taschenbuch. Kartoniert. Zustand: Gut. 2. Auflage. 157 Seiten. 18 cm. Umschlag: F. Jürgen Rogner. Guter Zustand.Seiten papierbedingt leicht gebräunt. - Gegen Ende des 22. Jahrhunderts ist die Erforschung des Sonnensystems durch Raketenschiffe der Erde nahezu abgeschlossen; Kolonien auf dem Mars und der Venus sind gegründet, und auf den Asteroiden zwischen Mars und Jupiter und weit draußen auf den Monden des Saturns ringen Menschen in einer lebensfeindlichen Umgebung dem Boden kostbare Erze ab. Die Ausnutzung der solaren Strahlkraft für die Energieversorgung der Erde hängt von dem Ruthenium ab, das in einer Minensiedlung auf dem Titan, dem sechsten Saturnmond, gewonnen wird. Colonel Benedict fliegt mit seinem 18jährigen Sohn im Auftrag der irdischen Sicherheitskommission zum Titan, um dort eine unsichere Situation zu bereinigen. Die Lage in der Titankolonie erweist sich jedoch als weit unheilvoller, als man annahm; die Kolonisten sind im Begriff, sich in offener Revolte gegen die Erde zu empören. . - Alan Edward E. Nourse (August 11, 1928July 19, 1992) was an American science fiction (SF) author and physician. He wrote both juvenile and adult science fiction, as well as nonfiction works about medicine and science. His SF works generally focused on medicine and/or psionics. Biography: Alan Nourse was born August 11, 1928 to Benjamin and Grace (Ogg) Nourse in Des Moines, Iowa. He attended high school in Long Island, New York. He served in the U.S. Navy after World War II. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in 1951 from Rutgers University, New Brunswick, New Jersey. He married Ann Morton on June 11, 1952 in Lynden, New Jersey. He received a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree in 1955 from the University of Pennsylvania. He served his one year internship at Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle, Washington. He practiced medicine in North Bend, Washington from 1958 to 1963 and also pursued his writing career. He had helped pay for his medical education by writing science fiction for magazines. After retiring from medicine, he continued writing. His regular column in Good Housekeeping magazine earned him the nickname "Family Doctor". He was a friend of fellow author Avram Davidson. Robert A. Heinlein dedicated his 1964 novel Farnham's Freehold to Nourse. Robert Heinlein in part dedicated his 1982 novel Friday to Nourse's wife Ann. His novel The Bladerunner lent its name to the Blade Runner movie, but no other aspects of its plot or characters, which were taken from Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? In the late 1970s an attempt to adapt The Bladerunner for the screen was made, with Beat Generation author William S. Burroughs commissioned to write a story treatment; no film was ever developed but the story treatment was later published as the novella, Blade Runner (a movie). His pen names included "Al Edwards"[citation needed] and "Doctor X". He died on July 19, 1992 in Thorp, Washington. Some confusion arose among science fiction readers who knew that Andre Norton used the pen name "Andrew North" at about the same time. They mistakenly assumed "Alan Nourse" to be another Norton pen name. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 130.
