### Review
Rudy Rucker's latest novel, *The Big Aha,* is pure transreal Ruckeriana featuring extremebiological and quantum technologies, steamy techno-sex, nasty aliens fromhigher dimensions -- and all soaked in the unique atmosphere of the magical1960s. ... This is a great example of how science fiction publishing is beingredefined.
