There has never been another writer quite like Douglas Adams; witty, funny and brilliantly eloquent on a gargantuan number of topics. The Salmon of Doubt brims with the Adams trademarks: thought-provoking, silly and insanely original writings in an all-new never-before-published collection. For the millions of readers who expressed their grief and shock at his untimely death, this is it: his final book and our last chance to see new work from an acknowledged comic genius of our time. This work includes the title novella, essays on subjects near and dear to his heart, including perception, computers, and Bach's Brandenburg concertos; laugh-out-loud short pieces, and transcripts of Hitchhikers Guide to the future radio scripts. One last glimpse of Douglas Adams before we go.

5.0 The Salmon of Doubt: Hitchhiking the Galaxy One Last Time
This is an immensely sad book; the last we shall ever read of Douglas Adams. It has some very funny moments and some very serious moments too; the Salmon Of Doubt itself only hints at the fantastic novel it would have eventually become. Left me with a tear in my eye.

With an introduction (foreword) about Douglas Adams and New Stuff by Stephen Fry! Stephen's homage to a fellow technophile did bring a tear to my eyes. What a wonderful way to start this book.The stories, essays and articles found on his computers are pretty analogous to the way he wrote. A smidgen ...
