Alien beetles with a communal intellect try to understand individuality. Genetic engineering tries to save the firefly from extinction, but not the way you'd expect. Smart cars drive the highways, and are a little too smart for their owners. An alien probe enters the solar system and a dozen human spaceships fight for the right to claim it, but it has no desire to be claimed. This is a book of short stories exploring man's place in the universe, on Earth and in space, where unexpected life forms greet us and strange events bemuse us. We don't know what we'll encounter as we discover new worlds and new technology, but here is a taste of what our future might offer, somewhere.

Damn the Asteroids, Full Speed Ahead!

Dr. Matthew Hamilton just wants to settle down to a quiet practice at Pembrook Clinic. But his first case drags him into a world of supernatural creatures, coming to him to solve their strange ailments. There are those out there that don't want things-that-go-bump-in-the-night to have their own doctor, and would just as soon see him dead. But he's acquired some very odd friends, and isn't going down without a fight.
