520 _a"What The Left Hand Was Doing" by Darrell T. Langart is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The book revolves around themes of psychokinesis, secret organizations, and international espionage, particularly involving a plot to rescue a brilliant physicist from the Chinese government. It explores the interplay between personal responsibility and the larger geopolitical tensions of the era, reflective of the Cold War period. The storyline follows Spencer Candron, a core member of the Society for Mystical and Metaphysical Research (S.M.M.R.), who undertakes a dangerous mission to extract Dr. James Ch'ien, an American physicist, from a high-security prison in China. After orchestrating his escape through clever disguises and mental discipline, Candron must rely on his psionic abilities to evade detection. The novel delves into the intricate and hidden workings of both the S.M.M.R. and the political landscape during a time when the potentials of human minds were both feared and revered. Candron's journey is not only a physical one but also a testament to the complexities of understanding oneself and the nature of reality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
