    Simulacron-3 (New York: Bantam Books, 1964) [a.k.a.] Counterfeit World (London: Victor Gollancz, 1964) '-' O mundo do futuro orientava-se por pesquisas de opinião pública. Mas o resultados dessas pesquisas, por demais demoradas, nem sempre ofereciam estabilidade e exatidão necessárias à conformação de uma sociedade avançada. Por isso os cientistas Lynch, Fuller e Hall idealizaram e construíram um simulador de ambiente, o Simulacron 3, em que jogavam análogos subjetivos para obter reações humanas como resultado. Mas Lynch desaparece, Fuller é assassinado e Hall é acusado de ambos os crimes. Tentando esclarecer a situação, Hall vem a descobrir que este mundo que o simulador repetia não é mais que o simulacro de um outro mundo maior, que o rege e domina. E com isto selou sua sorte. ==== http://www.sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/galouye_daniel_f '(...) Galouye's novels — "Counterfeit World" (1964) [aka] "Simulacron-3" (1964)] share the same technical ingenuity and a continuing interest in worlds where the Perception of reality is controlled and restricted, where indeed the worlds themselves may be arbitrary constructs – Counterfeit World being particularly interesting in this last respect. In a sense it is a novel-length reworking of Frederik Pohl's "The Tunnel Under the World" (January 1955 Galaxy), both being about construct-worlds designed for market research (see Advertising); it was filmed for television in Germany by Rainer Werner Fassbinder as Welt Am Draht (1973; vt World on a Wire) and was again filmed as The Thirteenth Floor (1999)'.'

    Péssima Tradução

    Tenso e envolvente, apesar de ridiculamente previsível (principalmente para quem assistiu os filmes e outras adaptações feitas encima dele), Simulacron-3 é a porta de entrada para uma boa e velha paranoia solipsista. Galouye consegue fazer com que você sinta a ansiedade e a insegurança de estar dentro de um 'The Sims', sendo que o livro foi escrito em 1964, quando não se tinha essa visão ampla do mundo virtual que temos hoje. Achei a tradução e edição d'O Cruzeiro deixou muito a desejar. Vários erros de grafia e concordância - não estou falando da antiga acentuação, usada na época - mas erros como troca de letras e no mínimo algumas frases sem nexo e palavras mal traduzidas. Mesmo assim, não conseguiram acabar com a obra prima da ficção cientifica, que este livro é! LEIA O LIVRO ANTES DE ASSISTIR ÀS ADAPTAÇÕES, PARA O LIVRO FICAR MENOS PREVISÍVEL! #ficaadica

    Daniel F. Galouye

    Daniel Francis Galouye (11 February 1920 – 7 September 1976) was an American science fiction writer. During the 1950s and 1960s, he contributed novelettes and short stories to various digest size science fiction magazines, sometimes writing under the pseudonym Louis G. Daniels. Born in New Orleans, Galouye (pronounced Gah-lou-ey) graduated from Louisiana State University (B.A.) and then worked as a reporter for several newspapers. During World War II, he served in the US Navy as an instructor and test pilot, receiving injuries that led to later health problems. On December 26, 1945, he married Carmel Barbara Jordan. From the 1940s until his retirement in 1967, he was on the staff of The States-Item. He lived in New Orleans but also had a summer home across Lake Ponchartrain at St. Tammany Parish in Covington, Louisiana. Galouye's first published fiction, the novelette Rebirth, appeared in the March 1952 issue of Imagination. His work appeared in many magazines during this era including Galaxy Science Fiction and The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. Between 1961 and 1973, Galouye wrote five novels, notably Simulacron Three, basis of the movie The Thirteenth Floor (1999) and the German TV miniseries, Welt am Draht (1973) (directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder). His first novel, Dark Universe (1961) was nominated for a Hugo. According to his obituary in the New Orleans States-Item, Galouye... ... was a Navy pilot during WWII from 1942 to 1946. He graduated from Pensacola Naval Air School, held the rank of lieutenant and was for a time during his service years in charge of a training school in Hawaii for Navy airmen. Immediately after release from the Navy, he began his career with The States-Item as a reporter, then as a copy editor and joined the editorial department in 1956. He later was named associate editor of that department, retiring in 1967. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Carmel Barbara Jordan Galouye; two daughters, Mrs. Gerald Johan Zomerdijk of Zaandam, Holland, and Mrs. Joseph Edward Ingraham of Covington, and five grandchildren. His retirement was due to failing health, which was in turn related to injuries sustained during his Navy service. His health continued to decline until his early death at age 56. He died in New Orleans' Veteran's Hospital and is interred at Covington Cemetery #1 in Covington. Richard Dawkins, the British atheist and zoologist, regards Galouye as one of his favorite fiction writers.
