书籍简介:

The novel is set in a typically foggy London. A young Scotland Yard lieutenant is charged to investigate about the mysterious disappearance of corpses from London morgues. The only "explanation" is an abstruse statistical theory that correlates the body-snatching with local cancer rates. The detective, however, since the very beginning suspects the same statistician being the perpetrator. Reality, however, proves less mundane and certainly less comprehensible than he had hoped.

In The Investigation the classic procedural police mystery is turned into a metaphysical puzzle, in which Kafkaesque themes, although updated, are not missing. As in almost all Lem's production, philosophical and epistemological questions are presented under the simple surface of the plot: what is the role of scientific inquiry? What does the existence of competing explanations mean for that goal? The novel also introduces a theme that will later be present in Lem's works: that observations are formed by the properties of the observer's mind, rather than by any properties of the observed.

作者简介:

Stanisław Lem (September 12, 1921 – March 27, 2006) was a Polish science fiction, philosophical and satirical writer. His books have been translated into 41 languages and have sold over 27 million copies. In 1976, Theodore Sturgeon claimed that Lem was the most widely read science-fiction writer in the world.

His works explore philosophical themes; speculation on technology, the nature of intelligence, the impossibility of mutual communication and understanding, despair about human limitations and humankind's place in the universe. They are sometimes presented as fiction, but others are in the form of essays or philosophical books. Translations of his works are difficult; Michael Kandel's translations into English have generally been praised as capturing the spirit of the original.
