The technology has an almost limitless capacity for good--but in the wrong hands, it could have an equally boundless capacity for evil.In the same year, the CBS network re-aired a program about the effects of propranolol on sufferers of extreme trauma. A simple pill, it had been discovered, could wipe out the memory of any traumatic event.At almost the same moment in humanity's broad history, mankind discovered the means for bringing about its utter downfall, and the ability to forget it ever happened. With this godlike power at their fingertips, can humanity be trusted to create a new--and better--world? Or is it doomed to bring about its own destruction?
