Novel: Cory Doctorow. Themepunks
 
Pre-serialization at http://dir.salon.com/story/tech/feature/2005/09/12/themepunks_1/index.html
 
Novel about a desktop manufacturing future in a depressed corporate economy
 
 
=Description=
 
Kevin Carson:
 
‘The serialized portion, the first third of the book, was excellent. It was an account of an explosion of desktop manufacturing, set against the background of an imploding corporate economy. He gave
hints in the online chapters that things would go badly for the homebrew production movement, which I’m sure will be a letdown, but I still look forward to how it turns out.’
