Customer Reviews of HEAVEN ENGINE
A Journey into the Future I recommend reading this book if for no other reason than to revel in Mr. Clarkson's ability to turn a phrase. It's a guided tour through the new, the old and the barely imaginable. Come, take a trip through time.
Fascinating Take On Immortality And The Transhuman Theme
As stated by the author writing in his "Acknowledgements" section, the theme of this unusual novel is encapsulated in a comment to Clarkson about his novel made by novelist John Updike while HEAVEN ENGINE was in the writing and concerning the superhuman Longevitites in Clarkson's story: "How do they keep from being infernally bored, as human consciousnesses would become in any infinitely prolonged situation?" To me this novel takes on that problem squarely without finessing it. HEAVEN ENGINE is a fascinating exploration of the themes of immortality and transhuman prospects. It is a groundbreaking, powerful narrative, and I strongly recommend it.
Marvin Minsky endorses HEAVEN ENGINE
Marvin Minsky, Toshiba Professor of Media Arts and Sciences, MIT, and a world-famous founder of artificial intelligence theory and practice, has written a cover endorsement for Heaven Engine: "A vast, important, and radical vision." Minsky has also endorsed Michael Crichton, Vernor Vinge and Isaac Asimov among other science fition writers.
