By the late 1950s, we were so confident in advances in medicine...
Is there nothing science (with assistance from alien tech) can't solve?
According to this story from ACG's Forbidden Worlds #71 (1958) by writer/editor Richard Hughes and artist John Rosenberger the answer was clearly "NO"!
Interestingly, when the story was reprinted in ACG's Adventures into the Unknown #166 (1966), only two things were altered...both on the title page...
The title has been altered and the extremely-optimistic opening blurb about mankind's almost-miraculous medical acumen was deleted!
Was it simply because, in the mid-1960s, we were no longer totally-trusting about our government and other authority figures?
Or was it...dare I say it...a conspiracy?
