Here, let me show you how to take over a group of people.

This book is weird. There's a very thin sci fi plot that is mostly just an excuse to write a book from the bad guy's point of view. Interesting, but ultimately forgettable. ( )

Idealists mugged by reality.
Lovely short book; needs to be a movie. ( )

Sociological experimentation goes really wrong when Harb Mallard tries to manipulate the natives of an alien planet so that his management record won't get tarnished.

Enjoyable pulp science fiction with a message. ( )

This book explores the difference between the amateur and the professional, when two anthropologists dispute the best way to move an alien species forward in their technological and social development. ( )
