What is They'd Rather Be Right about?
Joe Carter, Jonathan Billings and Duane Hoskins are the most unlikely fugitives from the law imaginable. Billings is Dean of Psychosomatic Medicine at Hoxworth University, one of the nation\'s most prestigious institutions. Hoskins is a physicist, Doctor of Cybernetics at Hoxworth. And Joe is their lab assistant on their project to create the world\'s first synthetic brain. Their problem is that they succeeded. They built Bossy, the super-computer into which all the facts known to science--and only facts, no unproven theories or assumptions--were programmed. Now word has gotten out that Bossy exists, and the masses are terrified. Incited by a controlling government, the public is convinced that Bossy is dangerous, even though they have no idea what Bossy is. And so the professors and Joe have been indicted and are on the run. <div class="bookitem
