Chapter five continues with the Cyberpunk literature analysis thru the novel The Fall into Meat by Raphael Carter, that cyberpunk sensibilities can use information technologies to intervene in the social.
Chapter Six through to novels analyzes how text from about and in can modify social behavior.

I enjoyed the first chapter analysis of Gwyneth Jones’s Aleutian trilogy comparing the alien culture with Human culture and being. If that encounter ever happened would be much different than we can imagine.

Since a teenager, I have been a Sci-Fi fan. I always thought that Sci-Fi covers all the possible futures that humankind can imagine(not really have just imagined). From Sci-Fi, we must learn the answers to the current technological advances. The author does that, analyze our possible post-human scenarios presented in differents Sci-Fi novels. I'm loving the book so far.
