Mark Wakely’s An Audience for Einstein



The topic is very interesting. Wakely has good ideas. The writing is fast-paced, and you get thrilled since the beginning. I love the idea that one day it will be possible to transfer my memory to another human being and I will be able to live again.


And the person whose memory is transferred is a Nobel-prize top-notch scientist, not any ordinary man with average intelligence like myself. This way, the old scientist has the chance to further his studies when his memories are transferred to a young recipient.


Then, the moral dilemma arises: will the boy cease to exist?


Nevertheless, a few things are hard to believe. How come such an intelligent scientist agrees to supplant a boy's memory with his own, knowing that the boy would stop living in order to give him a second chance?


How come the doctor could kidnap a boy who was living in the street but had a mother and a father, and then legally arrange that he inherits the old scientist's fortune? How come his parents noticed him missing but did nothing about it? Some other details are also unbelievable.


And yet, I recommend the novel because it is inspiring, thrilling and exciting.
