This is an illustration of what some call different "modes" of thought. Similar to different moods ;)
The point of this piece is in how we refine and use these "modes"....hence the invisible barber.

They wouldn't let you keep your ticket, in case you gave it to someone else who was already in the arena! Afterwards my sister found this one, so I sort of have a souvenir!

AN END TO HISTORY: SCIENCE FICTION IN THE NUCLEAR AGE
"I suppose there's no way of putting the mushroom cloud back into that nice shiny uranium sphere."
Isaac Asimov
The earliest novels foreshadowing these changes were written in the period under consideration here in response to the new situation of science in the nuclear age. In these prophetic stories the atom bomb and space travel form the background to an apotheosis of the species. The Overmind of Childhood's End, the "lopers" of Simak's City are images of a total transfiguration of the human species beyond the realm of history. They are metaphors for the failure of enlightenment and the hope of a radically different future. Here the human form is cast off altogether and with it reason, mortality and responsibility. In these images the destiny of the human race is to become a sort of cosmic beatnik in flight from the intolerable burden of historical and individual existence. In them the human species does not transcend its limits, but rather the species itself is transcended.
