WINNER SCIENCE FICTION DIY BOOK FESTIVAL 2011-2012
"Avogadro Corp is a tremendous book that every single person needs to read. In the vein of Daniel Suarez's Daemon and Freedom(TM), William's book shows that science fiction is becoming science fact. Avogadro Corp describes issues, in solid technical detail, that we are dealing with today that will impact us by 2015, if not sooner. Not enough people have read these books. It's a problem for them, but not for the [emergent] machines." — Brad Feld, managing directory Foundry Group, co-founder Techstars
