An interviewer at a centre for gifted children encounters a child whose perception of the world defies human comprehension. A man experiencing time lapses suspects he may be guilty of murder. A helping hand for the homeless and an unbelievable job opportunity for the unskilled -- in a hostile future, can such benevolence be trusted? A man displaced through time over and over again struggles to comprehend his fate while a former space marine discovers that falling in love with an alien can have unintended side effects.

These science fiction stories explore diverse aspects of the human mind -- its incredible ability to remember, its adaptability when faced with extreme events, its capacity to interface with technology, its perception of time -- and how all these aspects challenge our sense of who we really are.
