It was assigned reading in my college communications class. I couldn't understand why my professor wanted us to read a sci-fi novel. Then I started to read it and realized that the point of the book (for me, anyway) is that whoever has the most information, wins. Whoever can disseminate information most effectively, wins. Whoever can manipulate the information the best, wins. It explains a lot of what is happening in the world today.

It does.

Did any of your classmates grumble at the length of it? I recall staying up late several nights in a row to get it done on time.

I honestly don't remember. I do remember that I fell in love with that world and I devoured the book.

I'm glad you're doing this! That looks like the cover on my copy--which is long gone :)

I have mine, too. Interestingly, I also read it for a class, which was a science fiction course. I think I still have all the books we read for it. I expanded my sci-fi reading a lot through it.
