Summary: "Nothing But the Best" by Alan Cogan is a science fiction novella published in the mid-20th century, specifically in the 1950s. The story explores themes of alternate realities and the consequences of choices, focusing on the concept of parallel worlds that arise from different life decisions. Through its imaginative narrative, the book delves into the nature of existence and the idea that every decision leads to the creation of multiple possible lives. The plot revolves around Charles Mead, who discovers the ability to travel between parallel worlds through a complex device. He encounters his counterpart, Chuck Mead, and reveals to him the existence of their alternate selves, shaped by the choices they made in life. The two Meads discuss their life paths, reflecting on relationships and decisions, particularly concerning their marriages to the same woman, Estelle. As they navigate the implications of their different worlds, they consider the existence of an ideal version of themselves, ultimately leading to a realization that happiness may not lie in the pursuit of a perfect reality but rather in appreciating and making the best of their current lives.
