About This Book

The story opens in a vast, hyper-efficient employment bureau that supplies psychologically profiled workers for any task. Two engineers arrive seeking a pilot for the inaugural lunar voyage and encounter an organization whose computerized sorting, managerial showmanship, and quota-driven logic treat human beings as interchangeable commodities. As they negotiate with the brisk, time-pressed executive, the narrative satirizes corporate centralization and psychological selection, exploring how technological and bureaucratic systems reshape notions of fitness, risk, and sanity when the demands of extreme new enterprises collide with human unpredictability.
