Rent Schismatrix Plus (Complete Shapers-Mechanists Universe)

Synopsis

Bruce Sterling has called his Shaper/Mechanist novel Schismatrix 'my favorite among my books.' It is a detailed history of a spacefaring humanity divided into two camps: The Shapers, who prefer genetic enhancements, and the Mechanists, who rely on prosthetics. Sterling also published five Shaper/Mechanist stories between 1982-84, which have been collected with the novel in this compendium volume. This book represents the definitive collection of what is arguably Sterling's most intense work, offering a hard, gritty look at humanity as it pushes and claws its way to the stars.
