Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)

Pro: The concept is a good one; androids that can be better than human, but whose quality is unpredictable. Is it moral to keep making them, knowing how many will be defective?

Con: There really just two actual scenes in the story. Everything else is exposition, with heavy editorializing by the author. Even the conclusion is entirely narrated, as though we were reading the outline of a story, not the story itself.
