    About this ebook

    Without stressing the technological aspects of the strange powers of the widely-talented ones—the psis, espers, telepaths which have been so painstakingly forecast by Stapledon, van Vogt, Weinbaum, Vance and others—Messieurs Peterson and Staub have whipped fantasy, forecasts and facts into a stirring and mentally titillating story of a too-imaginative mind.

      The Wrong Side Of History

      Oct 10, 2021

      As blood pumped from the gash on his neck and the world before his eyes darkened, Senator Arnold McCoy’s last conscious thought was to wonder if being assassinated was enough to put him on the right side of history. It was his birthday. Surely, he co

      The Psilent Partner

      by Edward S. Staub and John Victor Peterson

      Without stressing the technological aspects of the strange powers of the widely-talented ones—the psis, espers, telepaths which have been so painstakingly forecast by Stapledon, van Vogt, Weinbaum, Vance and others—Messieurs Peterson and Staub have whipped fantasy, forecasts and facts into a stirring and mentally titillating story of a too-imaginative mind.

      A pstrange probing mind that crossed pstate lines, the pseas, even high in the psky—to bring psomething new to Wall Pstreet.

He wondered if one day he might cast his mind even to the moon, knew with a mounting exultation that his powers were already great enough.

      Yet he was as afraid to launch it on that awesome transit as he still was to send it delving into the tight subway tunnels in the rock of Manhattan. Phobias were too real now. Perhaps it would be different later . . . .

      He was young, as a man, younger as a recognized developing psi. As his consciousness floated there above the bustling city, exultant, free, it sensed that back where his body lay a bell was ringing. And the bell meant it—his consciousness—must return now to that body . . . .

      Dale V. Lawrence needed a lawyer urgently. Not that he hadn’t a score of legal minds at his disposal; a corporation president must maintain a sizable legal staff. You can’t build an industrial empire without treading on people’s toes. And you need lawyers when you tread.

      He sat behind his massive mahogany desk, a stocky, slightly-balding, stern-looking man of middle age who was psychosomatically creating another ulcer as he worried about the business transaction which he
