SynopsisPsychiatrist Gene Brewer doesn't have a diagnosis for the mysterious new patient who calls himself "prot" (rhymes with goat). But this strange and likeable man cannot be--as he claims--from the planet K-PAX. Or can he? Prot knows facts about space that are confounding the experts. He is soon revealing Dr. Brewer's own deepest pains and most sublime longings. And his tales of K-PAX have other patients competing to go along with him when he heads "home." Now the doctor is racing the clock to find prot's true identity before he losses a man whose "madness" might just save them all. . . Published in a dozens countries with movie rights sold to the producer of "Field of Dreams," "K-PAX "has touched the hearts and expanded the horizons of readers around the world. It promises to join Robert Heinlein's classic "Stranger in a Strange Land" as a moving, thought-provoking masterpiece of modern-day fiction.
