The ideas in this book continually inspire me. The story's great too.

Every year this seems less and less like fiction. Has greatly informed my thoughts on education and the future of computer science.

Many possible futures

There are *very* few books on my "to re-read" list. But I knew this would be one, even before I finished it. Stephenson does have a tendency to let his climaxes become so epic-scale that I find them a little unsatisfying. But the rest of the book is so inventive and fun, I can forgive that.

One of my favourite books of all time. Must read.

Absolutely love this book. So many scientific and geeky details about nanotech are laid out to form a vision of the future unlike any before it. Stephenson is expansive in his creativity and thorough in the use of details and metaphor.
