Beschreibung

<b>The classic science fiction novel that captures and expands on the vision of Stanley Kubrick’s immortal film—and <b>changed the way we look at the stars and ourselves</b>.<br><br>From the savannas of Africa at the dawn of mankind to the rings of Saturn as man ventures to the outer rim of our solar system, <i>2001: A Space Odyssey</i> is a journey unlike any other.<br><br>This allegory about humanity’s exploration of the universe—and the universe’s reaction to humanity—is a hallmark achievement in storytelling that follows the crew of the spacecraft <i>Discovery </i>as they embark on a mission to Saturn. Their vessel is controlled by HAL 9000, an artificially intelligent supercomputer capable of the highest level of cognitive functioning that rivals—and perhaps threatens—the human mind.<br><br> Grappling with space exploration, the perils of technology, and the limits of human power, <i>2001: A Space Odyssey</i> continues to be an enduring classic of cinematic scope.</b>
