"Badge of Infamy" by Lester del Rey tells the gripping story of Daniel Feldman, a doctor ostracized for defying Medical Lobby rules by saving a friend's life. Exiled from Earth, he finds refuge on Mars among colonists, but his troubles escalate when he learns of a devastating Martian plague threatening humanity. As war looms between Earth and Mars, Feldman becomes an unlikely hero, tasked with discovering a cure that could secure peace. This tale resonates today with its exploration of ethical dilemmas, the consequences of defiance, and the struggle for redemption in the face of societal rejection, making it a timeless reflection on the human condition and the cost of compassion.
