Krátky popis
Greg Egan is arguably Australia's greatest living science fiction
writer. In a career spanning more than thirty years, he has
produced a steady stream of novels and stories that address a wide
range of scientific and philosophical concerns: artificial
intelligence, higher mathematics, science vs religion, the nature
of consciousness, and the impact of technology on the human
personality. All these ideas and more find their way into this
generous and illuminating collection, the clear product of a man
who is both a master storyteller and a rigorous, exploratory
thinker.The Best of Greg Egan contains twenty stories and novellas
arranged in chronological order, and each of them is a brilliantly
conceived, painstakingly developed gem, including the Hugo
Award-winning novella ",Oceanic",, a powerful account of a boy
whose deeply held religious beliefs are undermined by what he comes
to learn about the laws of the physical world. This book really
does represent the best of Greg Egan, and it therefore takes its
place among the best of contemporary SF. Startling, intelligent and
always hugely entertaining, it provides an ideal introduction to
one of the most accomplished and original writers working
today.This is an important and provocative collection, and it
deserves a place on the serious science fiction reader's permanent
shelf.
