The ultimate cyberpunk - Pat Cadigan

In THE ULTIMATE CYBERPUNK, author Pat Cadigan takes readers through the evolution of this influential science fiction genre. From the goundbreaking forefathers of the field such as Alfred Bester, Philip K. Dick and Samuel R. Delany to the founding members of the cyberpunk movement such as William Gibson, Bruce Sterling and forward through to such innovators as Neal Stephenson, Ian MacDonald and Rudy Rucker.
In over 300 pages of stories, Cadigan presents the cyberpunk world in which reality and virtual reality intersect. The phenomenal impact of the Internet on our sense of community, the seduction of a world behind the screen and the inherent dangers of a society in which information can be hacked, stolen and sold, are some of the topics discussed by our best cyberpunk writers.
