    I have been discussing Neal Stephenson's books with a friend recently. I particularly liked Cryptonomicon and The Baroque Cycle. The former book is about code-breaking and computers in WW2, plus data banks and treasure hunting in the present. The Baroque Cycle explores Natural Philosophy, money, and vagabondry in England and Europe during the Baroque period.
