The Diamond Age

In a neo-Victorian future shaped by nanotechnology and rigid social tribes, engineer John Percival Hackworth creates an interactive primer designed to educate a privileged girl. Through accident and theft, the book reaches Nell, a child from the margins, and becomes the catalyst for an unexpected challenge to the system itself. Neal Stephenson combines cyberpunk imagination, social satire and philosophical depth in a novel about education, class and technological power.
