"He's not transporting drugs or jewels. He's moving information. The computer chip in his head is overloaded with white-hot data. He has twenty-four hours before the overload fries his brain -- and he's got an army of Yakuza killers on his trail.
"And his only allies are a cybernetic dolphin and a sexy streetfighter with a hardwired taste for violence...
"In 1984, William Gibson's Neuromancer -- winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and Philip K.Dick Awards -- introduced the concept of cyberspace to the world -- and revolutionized the way we look at the future. Rolling Stone labeled him 'science fiction's hottest author' -- and in the years since, his incomparably inventive body of work has made his name synonymous with 'visionary'. Now for the first time, Gibson's corrupt, computer-driven future is brought to the screen in Johnny Mnemonic -- based on a story previously published in Gibson's highly praised collection, Burning Chrome .
"This book, illustrated with exclusive photographs, contains the full text of William Gibson's exciting original screenplay -- and the short story that inspired it." [jacket blurb, US pbk, June 1995]
