born Jan. 27, 1904, McConnelsville, Ohio, U.S. died Dec. 11, 1979, Ithaca, N.Y. U.S. psychologist and philosopher. He taught at Smith College (1928-49) and Cornell University (1949-72). He is best known for his adherence to realism and his extensive experimental studies of visual perception explicating that view. In his first major work, The Perception of the Visual World (1950), he proposed that perception is unmediated by associations or information processing but rather is direct. He argued for an examination of the organism's dynamic world in search of the information that specified the state of that world. He developed his position in The Senses Considered as Perceptual Systems (1966) and The Ecological Approach to Visual Perception (1979). His followers organized the International Society for Ecological Psychology. Eleanor J. Gibson was his wife

born March 17, 1948, Conway, S.C., U.S. U.S.-born Canadian science-fiction writer. He attended the University of British Columbia. With his first novel, Neuromancer (1984), he emerged as a leading exponent of cyberpunk, a school of science fiction whose works are characterized by countercultural antiheroes trapped in a dehumanized, high-tech future. His concept of cyberspace (a term he coined), a computer-simulated reality, is a major contribution to the genre. His later books include Count Zero (1986), Burning Chrome (1986), Mona Lisa Overdrive (1988), The Difference Engine (1990; with Bruce Sterling), and Virtual Light (1993)
