Day Without Dad, A

Watson, Ian. "Day Without Dad, A." In New Worlds vol. 64.

"It was a spin-off from the technology of pilots' helmets" in near-future planes flown "by thought and imagery": a machine that allows transfer of a dying person's mind or soul into the mind of a relative (232). The story deals directly with the personal, and implies something about the social, implications of this technology. (RDE, 17/05/01)
