Novedad: Chasing Shadows, antología coordinada por David Brin

Ya está a la venta Chasing Shadows, una antología coordinada por David Brin que incluye relatos y ensayos sobre la vigilancia tecnológica de autores como Neal Stephenson, Bruce Sterling, Aliette de Bodard, Ramez Naam o Vernor Vinge. 

Estos son su sinopsis y contenidos:
David Brin, Hugo award-winning author of The Uplift War, presents Chasing Shadows, a collection of short stories and essays by other science fiction luminaries. As we debate Internet privacy, revenge porn, the NSA, and Edward Snowden, cameras get smaller, faster, and more numerous. Has Orwell's Big Brother finally come to pass? Or have we become a global society of thousands of Little Brothers—watching, judging, and reporting on one another? 
Partnering with the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination, and inspired by Brin's nonfiction book The Transparent Society, noted author and futurist David Brin and scholar Stephen Potts have compiled essays and short stories from writers such as Robert J. Sawyer, James Morrow, William Gibson, Damon Knight, Jack McDevitt, and many others to examine the benefits and pitfalls of technologic transparency in all its permutations.
