Urban rebels undermine monolithic corporate overlords. Daring heists are conducted through back alleys and the darkest parts of the online world. There's dangerous new technology, cybernetic enhancements, scheming AI, corporate mercenaries, improbable weapons, and roguish hackers. These tales examine the near-now, extrapolating the most provocative trends into fascinating and plausible futures. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e We live in an increasingly cyberpunk world--packed with complex technologies and globalized social trends. A world so bizarre that even futurists couldn't explain it--though many authors in this book have come closer than most. As both an introduction to the genre and the perfect compendium for the lifelong fan, \u003ci\u003eThe Big Book of Cyberpunk\u003c\/i\u003e offers a hundred ways to understand where we are and where we're going.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJARED SHURIN has edited or co-edited twelve anthologies.
