Fantastic Voyage 2: Destination Brain
by Isaac Asimov
Albert Jonas Morrison, a 21st century neurophysicist, and otherwise an ordinary and unheroic man, is kidnapped and taken to the Soviet Union. A major Soviet scientist, Pyotr Shapirov, is in an irreversible coma, and Morrison's special expertise could be of value. The Soviets believe that Morrison may be able to apply his controversial theories to retrieve vagrant thoughts that still may be floating in Shapirov's damaged brain and so provide clues to important work in which Shapirov was engaged. Morrison goes cold with fear because the plan calls for him to be miniaturized along with four Soviet scientists to sub-molecular size, introducing them into Shapirov's body and, ultimately, into his brain. The snappish relationships between the scientists are wryly depicted, and the mission itself makes fascinating reading as both an action adventure and an intellectually stimulating premise.
