Postsingular

It all begins next year in California. A maladjusted computer industry billionaire and a somewhat crazy US President initiate a radical transformation of the world through sentient nanotechnology; sort of the equivalent of biological artificial intelligence. At first they succeed, but their plans are reversed by Chu, an autistic boy. The next time it isn't so easy to stop them. Most of the story takes place in a world after a heretofore unimaginable transformation, where all the things look the same but all the people are different (they're able to read each others' minds, for starters). Travel to and from other nearby worlds in the quantum universe is possible, so now our world is visited by giant humanoids from another quantum universe, and some of them mean to tidy up the mess we've made. Or maybe just run things. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Review :
Praise for "Mathematicians in Love" -Cory Doctorow, author "of Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town" Rudy Rucker should be declared a National Treasure of American Science Fiction. Someone simultaneously channeling Kurt Godel and Lenny Bruce might start to approximate full-on Ruckerian warp-space, but without the sweet, human, splendidly goofy Rudy-ness at the core of the singularity.--William Gibson, author of Pattern Recognition, on Mathematicians in Love Dr. Seuss meets Dr. Wolfram by way of Dr. Leary. This is vintage Rucker: whimsical and weird, with a chewy center of hard physics that's gnarly as hell.--Cory Doctorow, author of Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town, on Mathematicians in Love "Rudy Rucker should be declared a National Treasure of American Science Fiction.

This is vintage Rucker: whimsical and weird, with a chewy center of hard physics that's gnarly as hell." --Cory Doctorow, author of Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town, on Mathematicians in Love "A mind-bending tale. In a riotously twisting plot, complete with hypertunnels, alien shellfish from a parallel universe, and an improbable resolution to the threesome's romantic dilemma, Rucker pulls out all the stops for one of his most entertaining yarns to date." --Booklist on Mathematicians in Love Rudy Rucker should be declared a National Treasure of American Science Fiction.
