41. Virtual Marginalia: Review Of Clement, Hal
    Virtual Marginalia Book title half Life * Author hal clement Posted May 15, 2002 I wanted to like this book. It has everything  
    http://www.papaya-palace.com/katbooks/archives/000541.html
    
    Extractions: I wanted to like this book. It has everything I like in sci-fi: action, politics, and biological Armageddon. But I didn't like this book. Half Life is set against a background where Earth is in crisis. For 200 years, new diseases have been ravaging the planet. After imploding, the population continues to decline to the point where the sick out-number the healthy. Basic biological research is seen as the only hope for survival of the species. Multiple and on-going efforts are organized to try and untangle the whys and hows of life, in the desperate hope that some clue will lead to a solution to the pandemic. As part of that effort, a mission to Titan is organized to search for pre-life (why Titan? Who knows. It's not really explained). Of a crew of 50, only 2 are healthy, and over half are expected to develop one of the new forms of Alzheimer's before the end of the mission. The story is fast-pacedalmost too fast. Scenes shift quickly with little transition. I had to reread many sections because I lost track of who was doing what. Furthermore, the characters are interchangeable with no real personalities and only their specific illness and job distinguishing them from one another. The presentation of the biological and chemical components of the story is difficult to slog through. There are two possible reasons for this: either the material is over my head or it is inadequately explained. Clement has an M.S. in Chemistry so the former is possible, even though I am a reasonably well-educated person. However, either reason results in an unsatisfactory reading experience.

Eräs Clementin hyvä ystävä kyseli jatkuvasti milloin hän kirjoittaa jatkoa ensimmäiselle romaanilleen ja kerran hän vastasi: "Sitten kun sinä lopetat tupakoinnin." Vuoden 1976 vaiheilla he tapasivat taas eräässä sf-kongressissa ja tämä ystävä ilmoitti lopettaneensa polttamisen ja odottavansa Clementin täyttävän oman puolensa sopimuksesta. Clement oli jo unohtanut koko asian mutta ei halunut tuottaa pettymystä vanhalle ystävälle ja vastasi: "OK, minä teen sen". Hän aloittikin mutta kyllästyi pian ja työ jäi sikseen. Vähän myöhemmin toisessa kongressissa hän kertoi tapauksesta ja kuulijoiden joukossa sattui olemaan

    Extractions: ALIEN CONTACT 56 Inhalt Science Fiction Alien Contact Personen-Lexikon Hal Clement wurde 1922 als Harry Clement Stubbs in Somerville/Massachusetts geboren. Am Zweiten Weltkrieg nahm er als Kopilot eines Bombers teil. Clement studierte an den Universitäten von Boston und Harvard Chemie, Astronomie und Erziehungswissenschaften und arbeitete danach als Pädagoge und Technischer Instrukteur. Das Schreiben betrachtete er stets als Freizeitbeschäftigung, höchstens als Nebenberuf. Erst nach der Pensionierung spielte die Schriftstellerei - neben Astronomie und Malerei - wieder eine wichtigere Rolle in seinem Leben. Hal Clement debütierte bereits 1942 mit der Story »Proof« in Astounding, wo auch viele andere seiner frühen Kurzgeschichten erschienen. Danach dauerte es noch acht Jahre, bis er mit Needle (1950, auch From Outer Space , dt. 1960 Symbiose bzw. 1983 Die Nadelsuche ) seinen ersten Science-Fiction -Roman vorlegte.

    Extractions: Harry Stubbs, better known to science fiction readers as Hal Clement, passed away in his sleep early in the morning on October 29th. Harry Clement Stubbs was born in Somerville, Massachusetts on May 30, 1922 and grew up in the Boston area. He received a BS in astronomy from Harvard, a M.Ed. from Boston University and a MS in chemistry from Simmons College. Hal entered the Army Air Corps Reserve in World War II, earned pilot wings and lieutenant's commission, and flew 35 combat missions as copilot and pilot in Liberator (B-24) bombers with the 8th Air Force. He was recalled to active duty in 1951, and served as a squadron executive officer and as a technical instructor. He retired from the service as a full colonel. Harry Stubbs at Millennium Philcon in 2001 He taught high school science for forty years, two in a public school and 38 at Milton Academy in Milton Massachusetts, retiring in 1987.

    Extractions: The highly-coveted Grand Master award represents the pinnacle of peer recognition in the genres of science fiction and fantasy. It is awarded by SFWA in recognition of a lifetime of achievement in science fiction or fantasy writing. Hal Clement published his first story, "Proof," in 1942, in Astounding Science Fiction, then the premier magazine of the field. His best-known novel, Mission of Gravity , is one of the seminal works of `hard' rigorous science fiction; it deals with a mission to a vital component from a space probe that has crashed on Mesklin, a fast-rotating, massive planet where the effective gravity varies from three times that of Earth's at the equator to 700gs at the poles. It typifies Clement's imaginative creation of scientifically plausible but weird worlds, a recurring theme of his work. A clean, spare writer with an ability to dramatize complex scientific ideas in a compelling way, invariably leaves the reader with the sense that the universe is a and wonderful place and the laws that govern its behavior equally fascinating and wonderful. Consequently, his work has and inspired a whole generation of scientists and engineers as well as a whole generation of writers. Harry Stubbs, born in 1922, taught high school science for many years; in addition to his science fiction, he writes science articles under his name, and paints astronomical scenes under the name George Richard. He is a resident of Milton, Massachusetts.

Hal Clement is one of the persons who has done much to forge science fiction into what it is today. His books always appear on the lists of classic science fiction stories and are some of the defining works of our genre. From one of the first 'real' science fiction mysteries, to stories that put humans into contact with some of the most wonderfully weird but scientifically plausible alien worlds and creatures, his stories always delight, entertain and teach. Hal Clement's writing has done much to define what science fiction is and set a high standard for comparison for everyone else working in the field.
