"Rudy Rucker should be declared a National Treasure of American Science Fiction. Someone simultaneously channelling 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 ‚"This may well be Rudy Rucker's best novel--funny, wise, fast and inventive. A real advance. ‚" ‚--Gregory Benford on Mathematicians in Love "Rudy Rucker writes like the love child of Philip K. Dick and George Carlin. Brilliant, frantic, conceptual, cosmological . . . like lucid dreaming, only funny. This book rocks!" ‚--Walter John Williams on Mathematicians in Love ‚"Rudy Rucker never fails to leave me breathless. . . Reading one of his stories is like a reset button on reality: when it's over, the whole universe looks slightly different...and much stranger. ‚" --Spider Robinson on Mathematicians in Love ‚"For sheer gonzo inventiveness, trust Rucker and this gut-wrenching, near-ftl-speed intellectual adventure. And trust me, too: You won't read another sf work all year this much mind-bending, synapse-tingling fun. ‚" ‚--Michael Bishop on Mathematicians in Love, A riveting new science fiction novel from the writer who twice won the Philip K. Dick Award for best SF novel. Bela and Paul, two wild young mathematicians, are friends and roommates, and in love with the same woman, who happens to be Alma, Bela's girlfriend. They fight it out by changing reality using cutting edge math, to change who gets the girl. The contemporary world they live in is not quite this one, but much like Berkeley, California, and the two graduate students are trying to finish their degrees and get jobs. It doesn't help that their unpredictable advisor Roland is a mad mathematical genius who has figured out a way to predict isolated and specific bits of the future that can cause a lot of trouble. . .and he's starting to see monsters in mirrors. Bela and Paul start to mess around with reality, and when that happens, all heaven and hell break loose. Those monsters of Roland's were really there, but who are they? This novel is a romantic comedy with a whole corkscrew of SF twists., "Rudy Rucker should be declared a National Treasure of American Science Fiction.

    Seller was willing to negotiate and responded quickly. He had competitive prices as others I viewed and he still was willing to negotiate. When we agreed on a price the seller shipped the product quickly. It arrived in great condition as advertised covered in bubble wrap for extra protection. I recommend this seller.

    Cheaper prices than anyone else at the time who was selling this product. The item came as described, was well packaged, leaving no room for movement in the box with the bubble wrap, and it was shipped out quickly and effectively. Overall, a great seller from the looks of things. I will definitely be come back to buy from them again.
