It starts with Software, where rebel robots bring immortality to their human creator by eating his brain. Software won the first Philip K. Dick Award. In Wetware, the robots decide to start building people—and people get strung out on an insane new drug called merge. This cyberpunk classic garnered a second Philip K. Dick award. By Freeware, the robots have evolved into soft plastic slugs called moldies—and some human “cheeseballs” want to have sex with them. The action redoubles when aliens begin arriving in the form of cosmic rays. And with Realware, the humans and robots reach a higher plateau. Includes an introduction by William Gibson.

These 23 stories take us on a twisted fun ride into some future times and parallel universes where characters as diverse as a one-legged International Actuarial Forensics specialist, a pharmaceutical guinea pig, and a far-sighted fetus engage in their own games of the survival of the fittest. From a new short story by William Gibson in which a teen disassociated from his body haunts his neighborhood through the decades, to Douglas Coupland’s balls-out satire of a slightly futuristic Survivor, to Sheila Heti's meditative romp about beleaguered physicists and Oracle of Delphi-like Blackberrys, Darwin’s Bastards is a fast-moving, thought-provoking reading extravaganza.

Das Buch, mit dem William Gibson die Welt verändert hat
Mit dieser Romantrilogie schuf William Gibson, der bedeutendste Science-Fiction-Autor unserer Zeit, einen modernen Mythos: den »Cyberspace«. Es ist die rasante Welt hinter dem Bildschirm, eine künstlich erzeugte Realität, in der alles möglich scheint. Gibson inspirierte damit Wissenschaftler und Philosophen, Computerhersteller und Künstler gleichermaßen – und half so, die Welt zu schaffen, in der wir heute leben. Für Bücher wie dieses wurde die Science Fiction erfunden!
