«Mercader de inteligencia» is the science fiction novel by John Boyd, published by Ediciones Martínez Roca in paperback (191 pages, in Spanish).
A pharmaceutical businessman on the brink of ruin finds a drug that seems to increase intelligence, but many animals die in the tests. His seventeen-year-old son has a mental deficiency and the invention could cure him, so he must decide whether to use it. That decision will irrevocably change the lives of all the inhabitants of the Earth.
John Boyd is the pseudonym of Boyd Upchurch. The Spanish translation is by Diorki, from the original The I.Q. Merchant (1972), in the Super Ficción collection.
It will interest readers of classic science fiction looking for speculations about intelligence and ethical dilemmas.
