Princeton University Press published new editions of Infinity and the Mind in 1995 and in 2005 both with new prefaces the first edition is cited with fair frequency in academic literature. As his own alternative to cyberpunk Rucker developed a writing style he terms Transrealism. Transrealism as outlined in his 1983 essay The Transrealist Manifesto is science fiction based on the author s own life and immediate perceptions mixed with fantastic elements that symbolize psychological change. Many of Rucker s novels and short stories apply these ideas. One example of Rucker s Transrealist works is Saucer Wisdom a novel in which the main character is abducted by aliens. Rucker and his publisher marketed the book tongue in cheek as non-fiction. Thanks to a grant from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Rucker taught math .
