About This Book

Neuromancer by William Gibson is a landmark work of science fiction, first published in 1985. Case, a washed-up hacker, is hired for one last job in a vast computer network called cyberspace in the novel that invented cyberpunk. Gibson's Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K. Dick Award–winning debut coined terms now embedded in daily life—'cyberspace,' 'the matrix'—and predicted the digital age with uncanny accuracy. Themes of technology, hacking, artificial intelligence run through the work. The book has received recognition from Hugo Award 1985 and Nebula Award 1985.
