A FEASIBILITY STUDY
In the advanced culture of the planet Venus, a search is under way for a source of manpower to meet daily needs. Venusians, sated with a millennium of struggle, effort and growth, want to lead lives of contemplation, freed of all other activity. But who will do the daily work? As an experiment, they plan to uproot the residents of a six-block area in a wealthy California suburb. If these people survive, Venusians will then transplant the remainder of Earthıs inhabitants to their planet, and make earth-dwellers their slaves.Caught up in this experiment are Dr. Simon Holm and his wife Andrea, who are on the verge of a separation. This startling crisis reunites them, but Andrea begins to assume the characteristics of her Venusian captors. How her husband rallies the Earth people to save Andrea and thwart the Venusians becomes the story's unexpected and unusual climax.
