Ings

Simon Ings (* 1965 in Horndean, Hampshire, Großbritannien) ist ein britischer Science-Fiction-Autor, der wohl am ehesten dem Genre des Cyberpunk zuzurechnen ist. In Deutschland wurde bisher sein Roman Datafat veröffentlicht, der von künstlicher Intelligenz und künstlichem Leben handelt, sowie sein Sachbuch über das Auge. Im Frühjahr 2007 erschien The Weight of Numbers unter dem Titel Die unerbittliche Pünktlichkeit des Zufalls auf Deutsch.
