Neal Stephenson (b. October 31 in Fort Meade Maryland ) is primarily a science fiction writer, who, although principally writing about computer and computer-related technologies such as nanotechnology , does not belong to the cyberpunk school of writers such as William Gibson and Bruce Sterling Although he wrote earlier novels such as the eco-thriller Zodiac , he came to fame in the early with the deeply funny novel Snow Crash which fuses memetics computer viruses , and other high-tech themes with Babylonian mythology . He has written two subsequent novels The Diamond Age: or A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer which deals with a future with extensive nanotechnology , and Cryptonomicon , a novel concerned with computing and codebreaking from the second World War codebreakers to a modern attempt to set up a data haven. (Though the title is reminiscent of the

    Extractions: Ms. Linda Stone, researcher and VP at Microsoft, as quoted in the New York Times, Jan. 30, 2001 I agree with Linda Stone about that. This curious feature of modern lifecontinuous partial attentionposes a problem for a novelist. Writing novels is one of those activities that requires ALL one's attention. I cannot put it any better than Donald Knuth , who writes on his website , "Email is a wonderful thing for people whose role in life is to be on top of things. But not for me; my role is to be on the bottom of things. What I do takes long hours of studying and uninterruptible concentration. " Knuth also provides the following quote from Umberto Eco : "I don't even have an e-mail address. I have reached an age where my main purpose is not to receive messages." In a recent review of one of my novels, I was described as "Umberto Eco without the charm" and so it should be pretty clear in what direction I am going. The purpose of this web page is to help me focus all of my attention on writing my next novel. Three strategies are used: explicit discouragement

    Extractions: By Andrew Leonard May 19, 1999 T o make a sweeping, possibly unfair generalization about an entire swath of humanity, computer geeks come in at least two distinct subspecies. One is familiar from popular culture the unkempt, hairy, paunchy recluse lacking in social graces. An ugly stereotype, to be sure, but these people do exist. Less well-known is the second kind of geek, the kind of guy Julius Caesar feared the lean and hungry geek. These geeks come in compact packages, thin and wiry. They sport close-shaved goatees rather than long hair and rabbinical beards. They regard the world with blazingly intense eyes, taking in everything, evaluating it, wondering how to fix it. These are the visionaries, the geeks who don't like to waste their time doing unimportant, boring stuff. Their impatience is reflected physically: Their bodies shiver with a nervous, tightly contained energy, just waiting to explode into the "flow" of all-night coding sessions, or, in the case of Neal Stephenson, 900-page novels.

    Extractions: Subjects Titles Authors ... Latest Bantam Books 1992 A book review by Danny Yee Snow Crash is a fast-paced, near-future, cyberpunk thriller. Neither its technology (with cybernetic dogs, portable nuclear-powered gatling guns, and ancient Sumerian neuro-linguistic programming), its politics (a libertarian world where the Mafia deliver pizzas and the Library of Congress has merged with the Central Intelligence Agency to form a public company), or its plot (the principal characters have a superhero-like immunity to being hit when people shoot at them) withstand close inspection. It is, however, a lot of fun, and its biggest virtue is that it doesn't take itself at all seriously. 26 August 1995 science fiction

    Extractions: Recenze (dalsi) Interkom Najprv som o panovi Stephensonovi nevedel nic. Bol som blahoslaveny - chudobny duchom. Mudri ma vyviedli z nevedomosti - povedali: "Je to Majster cyberpunku a naviac... jeho veci sa vynikajuco citaju." A ked zacalo byt Mudrych okolo mna akosi vela, dal som na ich slova... a som rad. Snih (Snow Crash) je uzasna kniha, nastartovana vynikajucou myslienkou, nadupana drobnymi ale pekelne dobrymi napadmi a vystlana paradnymi hrdinami... ako Draculova rakva zamatom. Na Umiho Neywitza a S.O. sa len tak nezabuda... Pribeh pana Stephensona sa odohrava v Severnej Amerike blizkej (?) buducnosti a v centre deja je metavirus, vzhladom na svoj povod schopny napadnut cloveka priamo (biologicky) alebo nepriamo (cez pocitacove pripojenie). Meno virusu je Snih. Je unikatny svojim posobenim, ale nemenej svojim povodom. Na jeho pociatku totiz stal Sumer. Toto zistenie ma takmer polozilo, malokto zo spisovatelov speculative fiction sa odhodlal na takyto grandiozny vylet do kombinovania: "Co by bolo, keby...". Obdivujem pana Stephensona. V knihe je tolko narazok a odkazov na historiu, mytologiu, biologiu, kybernetiku a programovanie... az sa z toho toci hlava. Samozrejme, iba za predpokladu, ze je citatel ochotny si nechat hlavou tocit. Kniha sa totiz da pokojne citat ako akcny pribeh, nadupany jazdou na motorkach, strielanim uranovych projektilov z megarotacneho gulometu ci surfovanim po Metaverze (Internet na tretiu). Ma zabavnych hrdinov, ktory su prirodzeni a vymysleni tak dokonale, ze sa citatel moze v jednej chvili trhat od smiechu a v druhej sa mu tisnu slzy do oci...
