Cyberpunk is a
subgenre of science fiction in a futuristic setting that tends to focus on a
"combination of lowlife and high tech" featuring advanced
technological and scientific achievements, such as artificial intelligence and
cybernetics, juxtaposed with a degree of breakdown or radical change in the
social order. Much of cyberpunk is rooted in the New Wave science fiction
movement of the 1960s and 1970s, when writers like Philip K. Dick, Roger
Zelazny, John Brunner, J. G. Ballard, Philip José Farmer and Harlan Ellison examined
the impact of drug culture, technology, and the sexual revolution while
avoiding the utopian tendencies of earlier science fiction.
