The latest Sector General novel in White's deep-space medical series featuring a mammoth space hospital (e.g., The Galactic Gourmet, LJ 7/96), Final Diagnosis revolves around the possibility of a cross-species interstellar virus. Referred to Sector General, Patient Hewlitt overcomes his extreme xenophobia to help the doctors and nurses uncover the cause of the inexplicable illnesses that have plagued him throughtout his life. A fascinating character study whose on-target delineation of the "us" vs. "them" mentality is particularly relevant to out diverse world today; highly recommended.

Despite the ominous title, all ends well in this imaginatively conceived story spiced by witty satire. Hewlitt, an Earthling, should have died three times in accidents on planet Etla the Sick, so everybody at Sector General--the deep-space hospital White introduced as long ago as 1962--presumes the transfer patient made up his accident tales. A variety of other-species professionals and trainees who at first upset the xenophobic Hewlitt examine and treat him. Slowly, Hewlitt begins to socialize with Kelgians, Tralthans, and Duthans. (The basic trick to socializing is keeping your eyes on your plate at mealtimes so you won't become nauseated.) Hewlitt learns that Kelgians don't have a bedside manner and that he can cheat at scremmen just as well as his new companions. When pathologist Murchison realizes that Hewlitt's cat has lived twice as long as usual for its species, the pieces of the Hewlitt puzzle start falling into place. Old fans of Sector General will be delighted by this new episode. So will series newcomers. William Beatty
