Push Of A Finger

by Alfred Bester

In a future where societal stability is paramount, a reporter named Ben Reich probes the enigmatic 'Prog' building, the source of seemingly preordained pronouncements shaping every aspect of life. He yearns to understand the system's control and challenges the deeply ingrained predictability, seeking to unravel the intricate tapestry of societal control. 'Push of a Finger' delves into the seductive allure of order, the potential dangers of total control, and the inherent human yearning for change.
