4.0 out of 5 stars A nonfiction ACC book you can understand May 28 1999
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Most of Arthur C. Clarke's nonfiction books are collections of scientific articles he has written. This collection of some of the first emails ever made is a great read. It gives a great insite into the production of the film version of 2010. Some of the best parts are from writter-director-cinematographer Peter Hyams as he struggles to find dophines, sattilite dishes, actors, heat sheilds, money, spacecraft designs, and other such things. If you like Arthur C. Clarke's books or like Peter Hyams' films, you should definetly get this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars From the dawn of man to the dawn of email ... May 5 2013
By D. Stover - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Books don't get much slighter than this one--a collection of (virtually prehistoric) emails exchanged between Clarke and Hyams while the latter was writing and directing the movie adaptation of Clarke's 2010--but it's interesting in two respects: first, as a reminder of an era not that long ago when email itself seemed a futuristic wonder (from the back cover: "Arthur C. Clarke sits at his Kaypro-II computer in far off Sri Lanka transmitting files to Peter Hyams, who responds in kind from his office in Los Angeles. Thus a fascinating computer correspondence develops"); and, second, because as Clarke himself notes, email seems to encourage a casual chattiness quite different from letters or even long-distance phone calls. Boy, he got that one right!
