	The Very Slow Time Machine by Ian Watson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Ian Watson is the finest young hard science fiction writer and one of the most acute and perceptive sf critics to emerge in England during the last two decades.
		Watson was and remains a maverick outsider playing with genre conventions in science fiction, fantasy, and horror, interested in all the sciences and indeed all knowledge, and occasionally turning his attention to hard science fiction.
		He is a generational contemporary of Gregory Benford and holds a similar position in the U.K. to Benford's in the American field, as a writer who brought new levels of literary technique and characterization to hard sf.

	Science Fiction Book Reviews
		The stories in the collection are divided between tales of the far future, yarns involving present-day, post-cyberpunk hackers and metaphysical reflections on the nature of reality and that odd ability of matter to sometimes communicate with itself—whether in the form of human beings or by means of a stranger sort of sentience.
		The stories are at their best when Watson gets inside the head of the ant who is walking the Moebius strip, then takes a quick step back and reveals the topological weirdness of what seemed to be straightforward reality.
		Watson supplies intriguing hints that skewed perceptions of the present and the memories of what has gone before are as open-ended and constantly changing as any science-fiction future.

	Ian Watson: Slow Birds (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Watson's story deals with Jason's quest for his brother and later the revelation which comes to him as he climbs aboard a slow bird of his own.
		Watson spends a great deal of time laying the foundation for the story and for Jason Babbidge's character.
		Although each of the events of the story follow from what Watson has described, the way Jason's character changes throughout the course of the story is handled very well, leaving the reader stunned.

		Ian Watson was born in England in 1943, and has been writing science fiction full time since 1976.
		Watson is more recently known as the screenwriter for the travesty of a science fiction film, A.I. He has some very interesting things to say about his relationship with Stanley Kubrick, but he doesn't actually deal with how the film was made.
		Watson worked with Kubrick on A.I. This tells the story of his involvement, although disappointingly, it does not tell the story of how the final movie actually came about, and whose fault that debacle was.

	The Great Escape by Ian Watson
		Ian Watson's mind is full to bursting with fascinating ideas: a man transformed into a vampire by chocolate; an urban-legend researcher suddenly confronted with the real McCoy; an astronaut who is the long-lost twin brother of Christ; space pilots assigned to collect alien caskets as they fly into our solar system.
		Foremost is Watson's ability to get inside the heads of his characters, his excellence in capturing their quintessence.
		But lovers of the wide spectrum of fantastic fiction will be delighted at Ian Watson's breadth of talent and at his ability to write in pretty much any style he wishes.

	Conversations with Ayckbourn - Ian Watson
		Watson has worked with Ayckbourn and is familiar with many of the figures close to Ayckbourn, as well as the English theatre scene of these years, making him a good guide -- an insider who has a good feel for what additional information readers might require.
		Watson quotes Ayckbourn as writing: 'I rather enjoy being the least documented playwright of the twentieth century.' It's too bad: documentation of this sort we would certainly enjoy more of.
		British author Ian Watson was born in 1942.

	Review: Ian Watson's The Great Escape, reviewed by Paul Shumacher
		In The Great Escape, Ian Watson explores the meaning of language and its relationship to consciousness and sentience.
		For Watson, the nature of consciousness is defined largely by how our minds perceive and interact with the outside world, though Watson is concerned not just with our human minds, of course.
		I found myself fascinated by Watson's speculations upon our past and future as sentient beings, upon the causes and effects of awareness, and upon the effect of aware beings upon the world around them.

	Ian Watson - an infinity plus profile
		Born in England in 1943, Ian Watson's first novel The Embedding appeared in 1973, placing second in the John W. Campbell Memorial Award and winning the French Prix Apollo.
		It's the first SF novel to take modern psycholinguistics as its theme, and a lot of Ian's novels have centred around themes of communication and consciousness, altered perceptions, the evolution of mind, the nature of alien intelligences (including whales and dolphins), and the codes and customs and cultural concoctions by which we structure our lives.

		It works for me in that it's the kind of book I have begun to miss more and more lately: a single volume SF novel that clocks in at less than 300 pages and takes a damn good SF idea and runs with it.
		Because of this, a number of people are interested in acquiring the computer for their own ends, including Gabe Soul, a religious guru whose followers are willing to do anything for him and a group of Vietnamese terrorists out to earn a fast buck and wreck the world stock market while they're at it.
		Most of the book takes the form of a thriller, with Clare being taken hostage by Gabe Soul and Jack attempting to free her, and this works fine, but it is towards the end of the novel that Watson runs into trouble.

		Watson: I was told by a reliable source that a sales director at Gollancz hadn't been doing very much to direct sales but had used sales trips to set himself up in business in America with an American woman.
		Watson: The next novel I write might be in collaboration with an American writer (just as I wrote a novel in collaboration with Michael Bishop years ago) but since this isn't settled yet I shan't say more.

	Ian Watson, MOCKYMEN
		Watson is not alone in this way of working - other titles coming from the small Golden Gryphon Press, such as Nancy Kress's NOTHING HUMAN seem to have the same underlying principles in examining what it is to be human, and perhaps the same near-future history (it is bleak).
		Unfortunately she does not carry off Watson's trick of stealing the occult roots - the thesis of CAMERA is that in Edwardian London a Swede joins a group of Theosophists involved in murder.
		Ultimately Watson manages to have Nazi principles save the world and I do not believe that he believes a word of it - nevertheless before the threat of the Mockymen he makes it true.

		Ian Watson's brilliant debut novel was one of the most significant publications in British sf in the 1970s.
		Intellectually bracing and grippingly written, it is the story of three experiments in linguistics, and is driven by a searching analysis of the nature of communication.
		Fiercely intelligent, energetic and challenging, it immediately established Watson as a writer of rare power and vision, and is now recognized as a modern classic.

	Mockymen by Ian Watson - an infinity plus review
		That it should be readable and engaging as well is a rather large bonus.
		I was reminded of Paul McAuley's Whole Wide World in places, that kind of near-future police procedural, although Watson has his eye on a significantly bigger picture here.
		Also, Watson's writing style is reminiscent of (or rather prescient of, given how much longer he has been writing) James Lovegrove.
