Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: N.Y. / New York: Thunder's Mouth Press, a Division of Avalon Publishing Group, 2007, 1st Edition, First Printing , 2007. -----------( 1st Printing of the First edition ) ----trade paperback, a Near Fine example, a wee bit of very light rubbing, humourously signed by Doctorow who has stamped the book with " To ____, My one, my only, my sole inspiration, without whom this could never have been written. Y'r pal" and then signed, the author has written the recipient's name ( Carol ) in the blank space of the stamp so obviously this was all done tongue-in-cheek, this contains: Printcrime; When Sysadmins Ruled the Earth; Anda's Game; I, Robot; I, Row-Boat; After the Siege, -----"Have you ever wondered what it's like to get bitten by a zombie? To live through a bioweapon attack? To have every aspect of your life governed by invisible ants? In Cory Doctorow's collection of novellas, he wields his formidable experience in technology and computing to give us mindbending sci-fi tales that explore the possibilities of information technology - and its various uses - run amok. "Anda's Game" is a spin on the bizarre new phenomenon of "cyber sweatshops," in which people are paid very low wages to play online games all day in order to generate in-game wealth, which can be converted into actual money. Another tale tells of the heroic exploits of "sysadmins" - systems administrators - as they defend the cyber-world, and hence the world at large, from worms and bioweapons. And yes, there is a story about zombies, too."-----, any image directly beside this listing is the actual book and not a generic photo ///SIGNED ---GUARANTEED to be AVAILABLE/// ---sizes are approximate (generally within 1/8 inch)---. Signed (see description). First Edition. Soft Cover. Near Fine (see description). Illus. by Uncredited Cover Art. 5.5w x 8.25h Inches.
