17 TOM SWIFT and His NanoSurgery Brigade
The 17th book in the series sees Tom facing a very personal crisis.
Already having conquered several of science fiction's more difficult problems, Tom Swift is faced with a test of his abilities that takes him nearly to the breaking point.
An incredibly close individual has been stricken with an inoperable tumor inside his head. The tumor will kill him in months, or an operation might do it sooner.
When Doc Simpson proposes an impossible task, Tom, who is mentally fatigued almost to the breaking point, finds that he must rally if there is anything to do to save the man. But Doc himself refuses to allow the treatment when he finds out that what the inventor proposes is more like a living video game that serious surgery.
Will it be possible to convince him to let Tom--an unskilled surgeon at the very best--perform the life-saving procedure?
And, can Tom rally his emotional and physical strength long enough to make the operation a success?
