Summary "The Psychological Regulator" by Arthur Cooke is a science fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. Set in a dystopian future, the story explores the theme of psychological conditioning and its implications for society. The narrative revolves around the interactions between humans and a psychological device used to manipulate behavior, ultimately questioning the nature of freedom and individuality in a regulated world. The plot follows Clark Stevens, a man undergoing a radical procedure with the Psychological Regulator, which aims to rehabilitate his psychotic tendencies. After the treatment, he becomes empowered and aggressive, taking on a warrior-like persona reminiscent of a Viking, which leads him to seize a plane and take Nurse Markett Travenor hostage. As he grapples with his newfound identity, tensions escalate between Stevens and a growing faction led by Dr. Alfreed, who represents the established order. The story unfolds with a confrontation between the repressed citizens of the city and the newly assertive Stevens and his followers, culminating in a battle for freedom and control over the future. Ultimately, the novel examines the consequences of psychological manipulation and the complexity of human nature. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
