G. Wells and Jules Verne, Stanislaw Lem's \u003ci\u003eThe Invincible\u003c\/i\u003e tells the story of a space cruiser sent to an obscure planet to determine the fate of a sister spaceship whose communication with Earth has abruptly ceased. Landing on the planet Regis III, navigator Rohan and his crew discover a form of life that has apparently evolved from autonomous, self-replicating machines--perhaps the survivors of a \"robot war.\" Rohan and his men are forced to confront the classic quandary: what course of action can humanity take once it has reached the limits of its knowledge? In \u003ci\u003eThe Invincible\u003c\/i\u003e, Lem has his characters confront the inexplicable and the bizarre: the problem that lies just beyond analytical reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0262538474\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780262538473\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Lem, Stanislaw, Hayles, N.
