[*] <- a sacrifical star for a black hole Indeed, I have read Frank Herbert, like many other sci-fi writers outside the "techno" group. I appreciate the detailed review. The reason for "technocratic" sci-fi request was my general preferance of a particular mode of sci-fi. As one of the respondants correctly pointed out, Stanislaw Lem and Philip Jose Farmer (two authors I really like) are not really classified as "technocratic". With regards to a truckload of responses: I really appreciate the recommendations. Some of the people out there have even taken the trouble to send reviews of books and their authors. thnx again. I will summarize all the recommendations for the benefit of the others with similar reading interests. OZ (the wizard of something or another..)
