I'd like to insert a quick plug at this point-one excellent novel on this
subject, especially for computer people-is Delany's _Valentina:_Soul_in_
_Sapphire_. This was an _excellent_ novel that was killed by a poor and
misleading cover painting and blurb. If you can get your hands on it, I
heartily reccomend it!
