520 _a"Solid Solution" by James Stamers is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The story revolves around the lives of students at the Desert Institute, where they interact with the enigmatic Professor David Adam Smith, a leading scientist who has unique control over a process that allows the magnification of materials. The narrative explores themes of intellectual prowess, academic rivalry, and the quest for freedom through scientific discovery. The plot follows Morris, a student who, rather than being expelled along with his peers, finds himself part of a daring plan to escape Earth using an innovative method developed by Professor Smith. After a series of experiments involving a unique crystal conversion process, Morris and his expelled colleagues concoct a scheme to modify their surroundings and attempt a mass emigration to habitable planets. Complications arise as they uncover the dark secret behind David Adam Smith’s authority and his manipulation of knowledge. Ultimately, with the help of fellow students and captured scientists, they turn the tables on Smith, enabling their escape while securing their future beyond Earth, leading to a blend of adventure and intrigue.
