Imagine a near-future world where one giant corporation has become so influential that no single government dare oppose it - not even the mighty USA. A company so powerful that it can establish an independent country to serve as its unassailable headquarters. That company is Tycom, and its founder - Thomas Tye - has made it his evangelical mission to save the Earth from ecological ruin. Already the orbital installations that can manipulate this battered planet's climate are near completion - while the military backing of an erstwhile superpower is guaranteed. But Tom Tye's seeming altruism carriers a price that the rest of the developed world is no longer prepared to pay...Emergence is the dramatic and multi-layered story of a hydra-headed fight against Tycom and its despotic master. But will our planet be a better place without him? *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Science Fiction & Fantasy; ISBN: 0330485954. ISBN/EAN: 9780330485951. Inventory No: 16110292.. 9780330485951
