Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Second Chance" by Robert Hoskins is a science fiction narrative likely written in the early 1960s. The book explores the concept of revisiting and potentially altering one's past decisions, focusing on the theme of missed opportunities in life. Through a fictional technological device—a temporal transgressor—the protagonist is presented with the chance to navigate back to pivotal moments in his youth. The story centers around T. Arthur Johnson, a successful but discontented businessman who grapples with the regrets of his past. With the assistance of a scientist named Cavendish, he uses the temporal transgressor to experience moments from his childhood and teenage years, each fraught with potential crisis points that shape his life. As Johnson relives these experiences, he confronts the choices he made, ultimately striving to change a defining moment that led to his earlier failures and unhappiness. However, despite the extraordinary nature of the device, he discovers that altering the past is more complex than he anticipated, leading him to a new understanding of self and the inherent challenges of life's choices.
