The Competitors

By James R. Zeffield

Book Overview

A space travel fantasy featuring United States astronauts who discover love and adventure, while getting an education, unfathomable here on Earth. Among other creatures, the likes of which they have never seen, they encounter dinosaurs; some of who are intelligent and others that are not unlike the lumbering giants which inhabited the Earth at one time. They learn how much more a society can get ahead if all the individuals are working together instead of competing with one another. After several years of living and working with inhabitants of the planets and armed with a new perspective on life, they again experience how it is to get along with other Earthlings when time and advancements make it possible for them to make the same trip. A philosophical approach demonstrating that most of the problems we Earthlings face can be traced back to competition.

Great Science fiction book

A philosophical book showing what life could be like without competition. A great book for class discussions. Makes you think!

The Competitors

One of the best science fiction stories I ever read. It really makes you think about how much competition is keeping our world from progressing, as individuals and as a people.
