Segregationist (Short Story) - Science Fiction

"Segregationist" is a science fiction short story by Isaac Asimov. The story was written in April 1967 and was first published in December in Abbottempo, a magazine produced by Abbott Laboratories, then later included in the collections Nightfall and Other Stories (1969), The Complete Robot (1982) and Robot Visions (1990).A man, who has been granted the right to long life (possibly immortality) by an official Board of Mortality, meets the surgeon who is to assist in the performance of heart replacement surgery on the man. The surgeon offers him a choice between a metallic or semi-organic heart. The man stubbornly refuses the doctor's attempts to persuade him to accept an organic heart, saying that it's "weak," as compared to the cyber-heart.
