The Test by Richard Matheson:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
"Science fiction readers need no footnotes on the brilliant career of Richard Matheson, from his classic first story, Borm of Man and Woman F&SF, Summer, 1950) to his just-published first fantasy novel, i am legend (Gold Medal). And The Test is too true and moving a story to need any introduction beyond this: that it treats, poignantly and perceptively, a many-valued human problem to which even the advanced future will find no simple answer."
