«La máquina de la eternidad» is the science fiction novel by Mark Clifton and Frank Riley, published by Ediciones B in paperback (299 pages, in Spanish).
The novel reflects the obsessions of 1950s science fiction: telepathy, parapsychological powers, and early speculations about artificial intelligence. The plot also speculates on the possibility of technifying Dianetics, a mental self-improvement practice linked to L. Ron Hubbard, making it a document of its era.
Winner of the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 1955. Translation by Miquel Barceló. Original title: They'd Rather Be Right.
