This penultimate book in the Sector General series focuses on O'Mara, who was the main character in the first book of the series. I was glad to learn more about him though Full circle. The reader meets O'Mara in book one and says goodbye to him in this book. It feels like it should be the last book in the series. We have total closure, we even meet Padre Carmody before he died. All the blanks are filled in and there is nothing left to wish for...so why is there another book. Full circle. The reader meets O'Mara in book one and says goodbye to him in this book.

It's where human and alien medicine meet: a massive hospital space station on the Galactic Rim, with 384 levels and a multispecies staff of thousands. In the course of practicing deep-space medicine, that staff has seen more than its share of challenges--from plagues caused by cafeteria food, to cafeteria food that resembles alien species. But now they are facing a disquieting new development: the terrifying Chief Psychologist, Dr. O'Mara, has been promoted to head of the hospital. Worse, he's been given the job on a temporary basis, for just as long as it takes to train his own replacement. After that, he is up for mandatory retirement. Nobody at Sector General can begin to imagine what they'll do without him--assuming they last long enough to find out. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

James White’s Sector General novels are always entertaining, and Mind Changer is no exception. The multispecies medical center at the edge of the galaxy is thrown into crisis when chief psychologist O’Hara is promoted to temporary hospital head. Will his fear-based leadership style work, or will we get to see a kinder, gentler O’Hara? Meanwhile, the medical staff is having problems treating a telepathic patient who broadcasts infectious anxiety and xenophobia. If you can forgive White for his mid-twentieth attitudes toward gender and his assumption that most humans in the far-future are Irish, you will enjoy all the Sector General stories. 4 stars. ( )
