Andromeda Breakthrough by Fred Hoyle and John Elliot $4 Fawcett Crest Books (1967) The Andromeda Breakthrough was a 1962 sequel to the popular BBC TV science fiction serial A for Andromeda again written by Fred Hoyle and John Elliot. This book is an action-packed fast moving tale from 1962 set in Scotland and the Middle East that features computers, biology, the environment and international business consortiums under the influence of ETs. This book is a sequel but reads well alone. The lack of technical detail works to its advantage by not dating passages too much. Hoyle correctly foresaw the applications of computers to molecular biology. His technological extrapolations towards the atmosphere and seas have yet to be tested. The cover artist is not credited. .
