Stanislaw Lem (1921 2006) was a Polish writer of science fiction and essays on various subjects, including philosophy, futurology, and literary criticism. Many of his science fiction stories are of satirical and humorous character. Lem's books have been translated into more than 50 languages and have sold more than 45 million copies. Lem is perhaps best known as the author of the 1961 novel Solaris. His science fiction works explore philosophical themes through speculations on technology, the nature of intelligence, the impossibility of communication with and understanding of alien intelligence, despair about human limitations, and humanity's place in the universe. One of Lem's major recurring themes was the impossibility of communication between profoundly alien beings, which may have no common ground with human intelligence, and humans. In 'The Invesigation', Lem brilliantly explores the disappearance of corpses from mortuaries all over London. Lem uses information theory and statistics as tools to solve the mystery, subjects about which he is clearly well-versed. The story unfolds in a forbidding, Kafkaesque industrial atmosphere.
