Cordwainer Smith was one of the original visionaries to think of humanity in terms of thousands of years in the future, spread out across the universe. This brilliant collection, often cited as the first of its kind, explores fundamental questions about ourselves and our treatment of the universe (and other beings) around us and ultimately what it means to be human.<\/p>\n

In \u201cScanners Live in Vain\u201d we meet Martel, a human altered to be part machine\u2014a scanner\u2014to be able withstand the trauma space travel has on the body. Despite the stigma placed on him and his kind, he is able to regrasp his humanity to save another.<\/p>\n

In \u201cThe Dead Lady of Clown Town\u201d we get to know the underpeople\u2014animals genetically altered to exist in human form, to better serve their human owners\u2014and meet D\u2019Joan, a dog-woman who will make readers question who is more human: the animals who simply want to be recognized as having the same right to life, or the people who created them to be inferior.<\/p>\n

In \u201cThe Ballad of Lost C\u2019mell\u201d the notion of love being the most important equalizer there is\u2014as first raised in \u201cThe Dead Lady of Clown Town\u201d\u2014is put into action when an underperson, C\u2019mell, falls in love with Lord Jestocost. Who is to say her love for him is not as valid as any true-born human? She might be of cat descent, but she is all woman!<\/p>\n

And in \u201cA Planet Named Shayol\u201d it is an underperson of bull descent, and beings so mutilated and deformed from their original human condition to be now considered demons of a hellish land, who retain and display the most humanity when Mankind commits the most inhumane action of all.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
