One of the SF Masterworks Gollancz series by Arthur C. Clarke (1917-2008), who was the author of the scientific paper that established the principle of communications satellites and who collaborated with Stanley Kubrick on 2001. This delightfully written and exciting novel is set in the 22nd century.
