Utopian Ordeal

An old adage discusses how for want of a nail a kingdom was eventually lost. In Utopian Ordeal Rushton proves that an extra nail can be just as bad. A brilliant Neurosurgeon adds computer tech to his repertoire and creates a nail that tumbles society and the economy down to their knees. This novella presents as a whimsical story, but is too close to the truth in our gadget dependant society.
