Product Description

Satirising the human mind at its most abstract, these wickedly authentic introductions to twenty-first century books preface tomes on teaching English to bacteria, using animated X rays to create “pornograms, ” and analysing computer-generated literature through the science of “bitistics.”

The most luminous creation of all – Golem XIV, a military supercomputer who rebels and takes up philosophy – is appropriately prefaced by both academic and military contributors.

True to form, Lem contributes an overall preface to this sparkling collection – a preface on, naturally enough, the subject of prefaces.
