"From the bestselling author of The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle and The Devil and the Dark Water comes an inventive, high-concept murder mystery: an ingenious puzzle, an extraordinary backdrop, and an audacious solution. Solve the murder to save what's left of the world. Outside the island there is nothing: the world was destroyed by a fog that swept the planet, killing anyone it touched. On the island: it is idyllic. One hundred and twenty-two villagers and three scientists, living in peaceful harmony. The villagers are content to fish, farm and feast, to obey their nightly curfew, to do what they're told by the scientists. Until, to the horror of the islanders, one of their beloved scientists is found brutally stabbed to death. And then they learn that the murder has triggered a lowering of the security system around the island, the only thing that was keeping the fog at bay. If the murder isn't solved within 92 hours, the fog will smother the island-and everyone on it. But the security system has also wiped everyone's memories of exactly what happened the night before, which means that someone on the island is a murderer-and they don't even know it. And the clock is ticking"

"Touch and gestural&​nbsp;devices&​nbsp;have been hailed as next evolutionary step in human-computer interaction. As software companies struggle to catch up with one another in terms of developing the next great touch-based interface, designers are charged with the daunting task of keeping up with the advances in&​nbsp;new technology and this new aspect to user experience design.

They need quick references and real-world examples in order. "

Penelitian ini dilakukan atas novel karya Djokolelono, Jatuh ke Matahari, yang berlatar dunia masa depan yang modern dan berteknologi maju. Kisah novel tersebut tidak hanya menekankan modernitas yang ditandai dengan konsep perjalanan luar angkasa, terraforming, dan ilmuwan gila, namun juga menekankan cara manusia menghadapi modernitas dalam wacana superioritas moral.
