The Glue Factory

Departing from his usual style, Dr. Simmons writes about the zany adventures of Dr. Alan Rossum, the world's first robotic doctor. The style of the story has been compared to Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. Rossum is a handsome, always helpful, extremely humanlike doctoroid, yet he is also fireproof, wrinkle-proof, germ-retardant, buoyant, fearless, battery-powered, and shrink-resistant. He is the ultimate answer to both the high cost of medicine and to grumpy physicians who tend to run late. Not only can he treat every affliction known to man and some extraterrestrials in a timely manner, but he can perform any operation at record speed. He can also jump higher and run faster than any doctor at Mt. Sinai Hospital, in El Cemento, California. This is his first month on staff and there are a number or bizarre and sinister forces afoot to block his successes. Indeed, to prevent the evolution of robotic medicine.
