Following the operation for artificial intelligence, Charlie undergoes an immense amount of growth in a remarkably short period of time. It is during this time frame that he faces the difficulty of balancing his emotions with his intellectual growth. Furthermore, the changes occurring to Charlie affect not only him but the relations to those around him.

"Priorities" is a word that gets forgotten far too often. It's part of a national phenomenon, really. Americans boast about their way of life. We crow about our standard of living. We puff out our chests about being the world's last superpower. We try to force our way of life on others. If they just lived like us, we think, they wouldn't have the problems they do.

attempt to find the meaning of human intelligence. There are a couple of scientists who have tried to come up with theories of what makes a human being intelligent.
