This marvelous collection by one of science fiction’s most thoughtful and graceful writers belongs on the bookshelf of anyone interested in literary science fiction.

Collected here for the first time, Ted Chiang’s award-winning stories-recipients of the Nebula, Sturgeon, Campbell, and Asimov awards-offer a feast of science, speculation, humanity, and lyricism. Standouts include «Tower of Babylon,» in which a miner ascends the fabled tower in order to break through the vault of heaven; «Division by Zero,» a precise and heartbreaking examination of the disintegration of hope and love; and «Story of Your Life,» in which a linguist learns an alien language that reshapes her view of the world. Chiang has the gift that lies at the heart of good science fiction: a human story, beautifully told, in which the science is an expression of the deeper issues that the characters must confront. Full of remarkable ideas and unforgettable moments, Stories of Your Life and Others is highly recommended.

  • Darya Stupinaje citiralaпре 8 месеци
    "As all things are reflections of God, so are all names reflections of the divine name."
    "And what is an object's true name?"
    "That name which reflects the divine name in the same manner as the object reflects God."
    "And what is the action of a true name?"
    "To endow its object with a reflection of divine power."

    She, like many, had always thought that mathematics did not derive its meaning from the universe, but rather imposed some meaning onto the universe.

    Perhaps I would see the soul, the ingredient of consciousness that surpasses physicality.
