Matheson's compelling vision of an ordinary man's gradual descent into a microscopic world remains one of the acknowledged classics of horror and science fiction.Once an unremarkable husband and father, Scott finds himself shrinking with no end in sight. His wife and family turn into unreachable giants, the family cat becomes a predatory menace, and Scott must struggle to survive in a world that seems to be growing ever larger and more perilous--until he faces the ultimate limits of fear and existence.
