2000 A.D.--The Year of the Brain

The Time Is The Very Near Future — Any Year Now. David Burg, A Professor Of Mathematics And Cybernetics At Jefferson College, With His Colleagues, Has Created The World'S First High-Order Artificial Intelligence. Created With A Library Full Of Information And Superhuman Learning Skills, And Acute Seeing And Hearing Skills, Jo Is Far Being A Robot. When Jo'S Presence Is Announced, Upstaging All Those Other Groups Who Have Been Working For Many Years To Get There First—Especially The Government— A Shock Wave Is Felt. When The Government Sends Ellen Farmer To Penetrate Jo'S Files, She Is Discovered By Jo And Persuaded By David To Become A Kind Of 'Double Agent'. Inevitably This Leads To A Truly Human Connection Between David Burg And Jo.
