| Summary | "Trouble Times Two" by George O. Smith is a science fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. The book explores the interplay between theoretical physics and practical engineering through the story of Thomas Lionel, who embodies both a physicist and an engineer. It tackles themes of identity, competition, and the merging of two different intellectual pursuits in a humorous yet thought-provoking manner. The narrative follows Thomas Lionel, a physicist who has managed to outwit his engineer counterpart through a new scientific discovery related to the "poltergeist effect." As the two personalities vie for dominance within the same body, Thomas grapples with the implications of his triumph while staying engaged with practical engineering challenges. The story takes a turn when his engineer self manages to create a mysterious device that complicates matters further. Eventually, both personalities must confront their interdependence, culminating in a clever resolution that emphasizes cooperation despite their differences. The whimsical tone, along with the engaging dialogue and captivating scientific concepts, makes this book an intriguing read for fans of science fiction and those interested in the exploration of personality and intellect.
