In The Phosphorescent Waltzer(1923), Professor Tornada creates an android and in Memoirs Of An Immortal(1924), he tackles the concept of suspended animation. André Couvreur (1865-1944) was a medical doctor who penned several medical treatises, and was also the author of eight romans scientifiques dealing with "medical concepts" featuring the mad scientists Doctor Caresco, then Professor Tornada. These are collected in a series of five volumes, translated and annotated by Brian Stableford, presenting for the first time the ground-breaking works of this pioneer of French science fiction.
