Neil. R. Jones

    Neil Ronald Jones was een Amerikaanse auteur die baanbrekende bijdragen leverde aan sciencefiction. Zijn verhalen liepen vooruit op concepten als cyborg- en robotpersonages en inspireerden de moderne notie van cryonie. Jones' stijl kenmerkte zich door de creatie van uitgebreide "toekomstgeschiedenissen", waarin hij de langetermijngevolgen van technologische vooruitgang en menselijke onsterfelijkheid onderzocht. Zijn iconische personage, Professor Jameson, de laatste aardbewoner die onsterfelijk werd gemaakt door de technologie van machinale wezens, werd een centraal punt voor de verkenning van identiteit en bestaan in de uitgestrektheid van de ruimte.
