About this book
In a world shaped by the relentless grip of a totalitarian regime, "The Programmed People" by Jack Sharkey explores the chilling consequences of a society stripped of autonomy and critical thought. As the Brain manipulates the Hive's inhabitants through pervasive surveillance and social conditioning, the struggle for individual freedom becomes paramount. This gripping science fiction narrative delves into themes of conformity and rebellion, illustrating the stark contrast between programmed obedience and the unquenchable thirst for self-determination. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this novel serves as a cautionary tale about the fragility of personal liberties in the face of oppressive governance. Discover the depths of human resilience in a world where true knowledge is the ultimate act of defiance.
