Beggars & choosers

From the back cover Tor paperback February 1996: Nancy Kress returns to the Nebula and Hugo Award-winning world of *Beggars in Spain* to tell a new tale in an America of the future, strangely altered by genetic modifications. Millions of ordinary people are supported by the efforts of the handsome and intellectually superior gene-modified, who are in turn running scared from the astonishing, nearly superhuman powers of the Sleepless. Wracked by the results of irresponsible genetic research and nanotechnology, overburdened by a population of jobless drones, the whole world is on the edge of collapse. Who will save it? And for whom?

המשפט הראשון: Concern for man himself and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical endeavors, concern for the great unsolved problems of the organization of labor and the distribution of goodsin order that the creations of our mind shall be a blessing and not a curse to mankind.
