Lem, Stanislaw (1921–2006)


Stanislaw Lem
Polish physician who turned to science fiction writing in about 1950 and explored in depth the possible nature of extraterrestrial intelligence. He suggested that we may have no common ground with alien races and that any signals we receive from them may prove meaningless. This was the central theme of his novel Solaris.
