About the book: 1989 / As a result of scientific and technological progress, people have learned to extract from their bodies the essence of nature - character, intelligence, memory - everything that makes up a person’s personality. This makes it possible, using radio waves, to transmit its essence to any planet, where it is embodied in any form of life existing there. And while a person travels in this way, his body remains in suspended animation, waiting for the return of its essence... Describing curious situations, unexpected turns in people’s destinies, the author makes witty assumptions about what this could lead to.
